More holiday baking 2015

A word about the cute sugar cookie garnishes - I confess I didn’t make them. I bought them at The Mercantile, a store in my neighbourhood where I buy a lot of my baking supplies.

Also, peppermint bark is so easy to make and it was quite a hit this year. It’s just 12 oz semi-sweet chocolate melted on stove top or in micowave with a tbsp of vegetable oil. Line a square cake pan with over-hanging parchment and spread the chocolate evenly. Refrigerate for 30 min. Repeat with same amount of good quality white chocolate and add a tsp of peppermint. Spread over set chocolate then add crushed candy canes. Let set in fridge for another 30 min. Take out and break up.

My holiday baking production was a bit curtailed this year due to an injured back and a full-time job, but this is what I managed to bake.
