Melting White Chocolate
The melting of white chocolate chips might prove to be the most difficult part of this recipe. Sometimes, white chocolate can seize up if it is heated too much or gets water in it. It can go from being smooth and creamy to becoming rough and difficult to work with.
These are some great tips to keep the white chocolate delicious and happy:
- Follow the instructions on the package. This is your best chance to make this work.
- Mix like you have never mixed before. You should not put the chocolate back in the microwave if there are still chunks. Instead, stir it really hard. You may just need to stir it a bit more, and not melt it more.
- Use a microwave to melt the chocolate instead of heating it on the stovetop. Double boilers are more likely to risk moisture getting into the chocolate and causing it to seize.
What to do if your chocolate does seize?
You can easily fix chocolate if you have done everything right and your chocolate still seizes. You just need to add some vegetable shortening to the mixture, stirring it in really well. This should resolve the problem.
Mint vs. Peppermint Extract
Technically, this recipe is Mint Oreo Bark. Therefore, you should probably use mint extract. Both, however, are great options in this recipe. It will give you delicious results.
It is understandable that some people prefer one to the other. So, you might want to double-check who you are making it for.
