Ingredients
Scale
- 8 graham cracker sheets, broken into squares
- 10 oz white chocolate melting wafers (or high-quality white chocolate chips)
- 1/2 cup crushed peppermint candies or candy canes
- Optional: 1-2 drops peppermint extract (for added mint flavor)
Instructions
-
Prepare the Baking Sheet:
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat for easy cleanup.
-
Melt the Chocolate:
- In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the white chocolate wafers in 30-second intervals, stirring between each until smooth and fully melted. If desired, stir in a drop or two of peppermint extract.
-
Dip the Graham Crackers:
- Using a fork, dip each graham cracker square into the melted white chocolate, coating both sides. Let any excess chocolate drip back into the bowl.
- Place each coated graham cracker on the prepared baking sheet.
-
Add Peppermint Topping:
- While the chocolate is still wet, sprinkle the crushed peppermint candy on top of each graham cracker.
-
Set the Chocolate:
- Let the graham crackers sit at room temperature until the chocolate hardens, or place them in the refrigerator for 15-20 minutes to set more quickly.
-
Serve and Enjoy:
- Once the chocolate is fully set, arrange the peppermint graham crackers on a platter or package them for gifting.
Notes
- Storage: Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week, or refrigerate for up to 2 weeks.
