24 pieces
Ingredients
  • 2 cups (12 ounces) NESTLÉ® TOLL HOUSE® Semi–Sweet Chocolate Morsels
  • 2 cups (12 ounces) NESTLÉ® TOLL HOUSE® Premier White Morsels
  • 1 cup crushed candy canes (about 9 whole ones), sifted with dust reserved
Directions
  1. Line a 9-by-13-inch baking pan completely with foil and set aside.
  2. Fill a medium saucepan halfway with water and bring to a simmer over medium-high heat.
  3. Lower the heat to medium low, then place the semisweet chocolate in a heatproof bowl resting on top of the pot of simmering water.
  4. Stir to melt the chocolate until completely smooth, about 5 minutes, making sure no water gets in the bowl as you're working.* 5. Pour the chocolate into the prepared pan and spread it evenly across the bottom. Place in the refrigerator to cool until just set, 10 to 15 minutes.
  5. When the semisweet chocolate is nearly ready, repeat steps 2 through 4 with the white chocolate. When the white chocolate is completely melted, stir in the reserved candy cane dust.
  6. Immediately pour the white chocolate over the semisweet layer, spreading evenly to cover. Sprinkle the candy canes on top, then chill the bark in the refrigerator until firm, about 1 hour. Cut the bark into pieces and serve. *For alternative melting instructions: Microwave morsels in a small microwave-safe bowl for 1 minute on medium-high power, then stir until smooth. Morsels may retain some of their original shape. If necessary, microwave at additional 10- to 20-second intervals, stirring until smooth.
