- 12oz bag seimsweet chocolates
1. Take bag of chocolates and pour into cookie pan. With a sharp knife chop chocolates as coarsely as possible. 2.Pour chopped chocolates into bowl and microwave on high for 1 minute. While chocolates are in the microwave, clean cookie pan and line with wax paper.Remove bowl from microwave and stir. Return bowl to microwave for 15 more seconds. 3. Remove bowl and pour chocolate onto wax paper and begin to smooth with butter knife.Begin to sprinkle crushed peppermint onto chocolate.4. Refrigerate for 1 hour or until firm.
