Peppermint Bark Rice Krispy Treats

1. 1

   For the candy cane bark:

2. 2

   Chop up the almond bark and place it and the oil in a microwave safe bowl. Microwave in 30 second intervals, stirring after each one until bark is totally melted.

3. 3

   Once melted spread it out on a sheet of wax paper into a thin layer. Sprinkle your crushed candy canes all over until totally covered. Let it sit about 20 minutes until the bark is hard again. Then you can break it up into small pieces with your hands.

4. 4

   For the Rice Krispie treats:

5. 5

   Pour the Rice Krispies and broken up peppermint bark in a large mixing bowl. Set aside.

6. 6

   Melt the butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Once melted turn the heat down to the lowest setting and add the marshmallows and peppermint extract. Stir until the marshmallows are mostly all melted (this will take a few minutes-low and slow is key for perfect texture).

7. 7

   Once fully melted, take them off heat and pour over the Rice Krispies. Stir lightly to combine. Dump everything into a greased 9x9 pan and press it into an even layer. Let it sit for about 5 minutes, then with greased hands go in and flatten the top. Allow them to cool about 20 minutes. Enjoy!
