Peppermint Bark Balls

Well it’s been a looooooong and eventful year. These last days of the year are good for reflection on 2017 and planning for 2018.

2017 was filled with some wonderful events. Some highlights include being invited to attend the Sundance Film Festival, visiting one of my favorite places on earth, Rancho La Puerta, and most especially, having the opportunity to share a recipe on The Today Show!

So, to end the year in cheery holiday mode, I thought you might like a fresh take on a classic dessert that is a snap to create just in time for your New Year’s Eve celebration!

Peppermint Bark is a curious thing… the cool sweetness of candy canes coupled with delicious chocolate. But I find the bars to be cumbersome and missing the right balance of sweetness-to-minty-ness and texture so I took it upon myself to create a version that remedies that.

I am very excited for the new year. Looking forward, I have a few ideas of how I’m going to enjoy and enhance the coming new year, not least of which is coming up with more recipes to share with you! I am very thankful that you have been part of my year.

HAPPY 2018!

Annette
