Ingredients
  

  • 1 sugar cookie mix
  • 1/3 cup unsalted butter
  • 1 egg
  • 12 oz chocolate almond bark
  • 6 oz white almond bark
  • 1/2 cup crushed peppermints

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Cut a piece of parchment paper to 12x12 size and place onto a cookie sheet. 
  • Crush the peppermints in a bag and set aside. 
  • Using a mixer, mix together the cookie mix, egg and butter until a soft dough forms.  
  • Press the cookie dough onto the parchment paper and roll out until it fills the edges of your 12x12 sheet. Rolling a plastic cup works great, as it won’t stick. 
  • Bake for 10 minutes, or until a light golden brown color. Cool completely. (IMPORTANT!) 
  • Melt the chocolate almond bark using a double broiler method. Spread the melted chocolate all over the cooled cookie crust.  
  • Sprinkle the crushed peppermints all over the top of the chocolate. 
  • Melt the white chocolate and decorate the top with drizzles all over.   
  • Place into the fridge for a couple of hours until the chocolate has completely set. 
  • Break apart and enjoy! If you prefer cleaner slices, use a pizza cutter.
