- 12 ounces dark or semisweet chocolate

- 1 teaspoon peppermint extract

Line a 13" x 18" baking sheet with parchment paper, waxed paper or foil
Place dark or semisweet chocolate in a medium-sized microwave-safe bowl and microwave in 30-second increments until melted. Stir between increments and mix until smooth.
Spread an even layer of the melted dark chocolate onto the prepared pan. (It won't quite cover the entire pan). Refrigerate pan for 10 minutes.

Add the peppermint extract to the melted white chocolate and blend well.
Remove pan from refrigerator. Spread white chocolate evenly over dark chocolate.

Refrigerate for additional 10 minutes, or until set.
Remove from refrigerator, allow to come to room temperature, and break into individual pieces. Serve or store.
