Description
Homemade peppermint crunch white chocolate covered graham crackers combine festive flavors for holiday dessert magic. Crisp graham bases drizzled with melted white chocolate create irresistible seasonal treats you’ll crave all winter long.
Ingredients
Scale
- 8 (whole) graham crackers
- 10 oz (280 g) Ghirardelli white chocolate melting wafers
- Crushed peppermint (as required for topping)
Instructions
- Prepare a microwave-safe container and place Ghirardelli White Chocolate Melting Wafers inside, ready for melting process.
- Microwave chocolate for 1 minute, then stir thoroughly. If chocolate hasn’t completely melted, continue microwaving in 15-second intervals, stirring between each interval. Take care to prevent burning.
- Use a fork to dip each graham cracker into melted white chocolate, ensuring comprehensive coverage on both sides. Allow excess chocolate to drip off before transferring to parchment paper.
- While chocolate remains wet and glossy, immediately scatter crushed peppermint pieces generously across the surface of each coated graham cracker.
- Let chocolatey treats rest at room temperature, approximately 30-45 minutes, until chocolate hardens completely and peppermint pieces adhere firmly.
Notes
- Optimize chocolate melting by using short, frequent intervals to prevent burning and ensure smooth consistency.
- Gently tap the fork on the bowl’s edge after dipping to remove excess chocolate, creating a cleaner, more even coating.
- Select high-quality peppermint candies or candy canes for a more intense and fresh flavor profile when crushing.
- Store finished treats in an airtight container at cool room temperature to maintain crisp texture and prevent chocolate bloom.
