Peppermint Bark

Hi! After seeing Katie’s recipe for peppermint bark this morning, I ran to my kitchen to make my own. I made a few changes to her recipe and came up with this:

Peppermint Bark

Adapted from Chocolate Covered Katie

1/2 cup coconut butter (I used Artisiana brand)

1/4 cup cacao butter chips (I used Mountain Rose Herbs)

2 Tablespoons extra virgin coconut oil (I used Artisiana brand)

2 Tablespoons agave

1/4 teaspoon peppermint extract

Toppings: I used crushed mint M&M’s and sprinkles

Line a baking dish with tin foil (any size will do.) In a double broiler or microwave safe bowl, gently heat the coconut butter, cacao butter and coconut oil until melted. Stir in the agave and peppermint extract. Spread the mixture in your baking dish with a spatula. Sprinkle with toppings of your choice. Place in the freezer and allow to harden for approximately two hours. Break into smaller pieces and store in the refrigerator or freezer.

These are perfect to share with family and friends. They don’t even have to know that they’re healthy! They taste good enough to be consitered “normal” holiday treats.

I’m off to work on some projects. Have a great day,

Kilee
