SERVINGS: Enough to share
TIME: 1 hrs, 15min
INGREDIENTS
- • 12 oz white chocolate
- • 12 oz dark chocolate
- • 4 tsp coconut oil, divided
- • 1 tsp peppermint extract
- • 1 Tbsp Aiya Culinary Grade Matcha
- • 2 large handfuls of crushed pretzels
- • crushed peppermint candies or candy canes, to top
DIRECTIONS
- 1. Line a medium sized baking pan with parchment paper.
- 2. Crush two large handfuls of pretzels and evenly spread them on the parchment paper.
- 3. Make the dark chocolate layer: Finely chop the dark chocolate and divide evenly between two microwavable bowls. Add 1 tsp coconut oil to each of the bowls. Microwave the first bowl for 30 seconds. Lightly stir and microwave 2-3 more times in 30 second intervals, or until completely melted. Make sure to stir well between the intervals (chocolate burns easily). Repeat with the second bowl.
- 4. Add ½ tsp peppermint extract to each bowl and stir vigorously until incorporated.
- 5. Immediately pour the melted dark chocolate over the crushed pretzels in a zigzag motion until covered. If necessary, use a spatula to spread and flatten until even.
- 6. Place in the freezer for about 15-20 minutes or until the chocolate sets.
- 7. Make the Matcha white chocolate layer: Finely chop the white chocolate and divide evenly between two microwavable bowls. Add 1 tsp coconut oil to each of the bowls. Microwave the first bowl for 30 seconds. Lightly stir and microwave 2-3 more times in 30 second intervals, or until completely melted. Make sure to stir well between the intervals (chocolate burns easily). Repeat with the second bowl.
- 8. Sift ½ Tbsp Matcha directly over each melted white chocolate bowl and stir until well incorporated.
- 9. Immediately pour the melted Matcha chocolate over the dark chocolate layer in a zigzag motion until covered. Use a spatula to flatten if necessary.
- 10. Sprinkle the crushed peppermint candies on top and freeze for an additional 30-40 minutes.
- 11. Once the chocolate sets, peel the parchment paper off and break into chunks.
- 12. Share with friends and enjoy!
