Jackie's Chocolate Layered Mint Bars
by Rachel Keller

These taste wonderful! I got this recipe from Jackie, a coworker from my graduate school days. She always made these whenever we had a social gathering. For a bridal shower gift, I received a recipe book from my coworkers with this recipe in it.

Ingredients:

1 12-oz. pkg. semi-sweet chocolate chips
1 14-oz. can sweetened condensed milk
2 tsp. vanilla
6 oz. white chocolate
1/2 to 1 T. oil-based peppermint extract (to taste)
Few drops green or red food coloring (optional)

Directions:

In a heavy saucepan or a double boiler, melt the chips with 1 cup sweetened condensed milk. Stir in vanilla. Spread half of the mixture in a wax-paper or foil-lined 8-inch square pan. Chill 10 minutes or until firm. Hold remaining mixture at room temperature. Melt the white chocolate in a double boiler with 1/3 cup remaining sweetened condensed milk. Stir in the peppermint and food coloring. Spread this on the chilled chocolate layer. Chill for 10 minutes or until firm. Then spread remaining chocolate mixture on mint layer. Chill 2 hours. Turn onto cutting board; peel off paper or foil and cut into 64 one-inch squares.

If you enjoyed this recipe, you will also want to try our other homemade mint candy recipes (mint candy, cream cheese mints, molded peppermint candy). You can change these mints to fit the season by adding food coloring, or you can even serve these mints at weddings.
