Gluten Free Peppermint Bark

Few holiday treats hit the way peppermint bark does — that satisfying snap of layered chocolate, the cool rush of mint, the crunch of crushed candy cane on top. This version is made entirely from scratch with real dark and white chocolate, so you're in full control of every ingredient that goes into it. That matters more than it sounds, because store-bought bark and seasonal confections are notorious for sneaking in unexpected additives or being processed on shared lines. Here, a double-boiler melt keeps both chocolate layers glossy and smooth, while a small amount of coconut oil gives each layer that clean, professional finish. The one label worth double-checking is the candy canes — the recipe flags this too, since not all brands are produced the same way — but once you've got a confirmed safe bag, the rest comes together beautifully. It sets up in the fridge in under an hour and breaks into about 16 gorgeous, gift-worthy pieces. Whether you're stacking them on a holiday platter or tucking them into treat bags, this bark is the kind of thing people ask you to make every single year.
