Dark Chocolate Peppermint Bark - Healthy For You

I found this recipe in a Health Magazine and it was so easy to make! It took me under 15 minutes to throw it together.  Here is the recipe:

12 ounces of dark or bittersweet chocolate chips
1 teaspoon mint or peppermint extract
8 large candy canes (crushed up)

melt the chocolate over a double boiler till melted add in the mint extract and 4 crushed up candy canes. Stir very well. I used a metal disposable tin 13x9 size - line the bottom with wax paper.  Pour the melted chocolate mixture into the pan and smooth out with a spoon - then add the rest of the crushed candy canes on top - gently press into the chocolate.  Put in the freezer for 30 minutes.  After 30 minutes take out and break up into bark pieces! Oh and dont forgot to peel away the wax paper. This will totally satisfy those craving you may have similar to mine:) Dark Chocolate is very good for us! Enjoy it~
