Ingredients
  • 200 g dark chocolate
  • 1½ cups icing sugar
  • 2 Tbsp milk
  • 1 tsp peppermint extract (or to taste)
Instructions
  1. Line a baking tray with wax paper; set aside.
  2. In a microwave-safe bowl, heat 100 g of the chocolate in 30 second increments, stirring after each increment, until fully melted. Pour melted chocolate onto prepared baking tray and spread into a thin, even layer roughly 8" square. Refrigerate until firm.
  3. In a mixing bowl, mix the icing sugar, milk, and peppermint extract until it forms a thick paste. If mixture is too thick, add a bit more milk, if it is too thin, add a bit more icing sugar. Spread sugar mixture over top of the cooled chocolate. Refrigerate until firm.
  4. Melt the remaining 100 g of chocolate in 30 second increments, stirring after each increment, until fully melted. Pour over the icing sugar mixture and spread into a thin, even layer. Refrigerate until fully set, about 2 hours.
  5. Once fully set, break into pieces.
Notes
Store in an airtight container in the fridge or freezer to prevent the filling from melting.
