I can’t stop eating this stuff.
Miss C tasted it and then promptly asked if she could “keep it” in her room.
I nearly wrestled her to the ground.
I’ve got PMS and I don’t want anyone touching the sweets but me.
Pontificating about poop and pinot noir since 2005
Howdy!
I'm Jamie, just another working mom seeking a few moments of Zen and zinfandel between soccer practice and supper. My former beach bartender husband founded MouseCalls Computer Services here in Nashville. We have two daughters, two dogs, and too much laundry. I believe laughter is the best medicine, especially when administered with a good glass of wine, or three. Read more about me...
My sister makes that stuff (probably not QUITE as good as real Belgian stuff but bet it’s pretty close) and it is SUPER easey to make. Put a bunch of candy canes in a baggie and run a rolling pin over them to crush them, melt white chocolate chips in a double boiler, mix together and pour in a 9×13 pan and let cool. Break into pieces. Yum!
Here is a recipe from online. I don’t think she uses a recipe. Really you can pretty much eyball it and add more or less of the chocolate or candy canes to taste.
Crushed candy canes, to yield 1 cup
2 pounds white chocolate
Peppermint flavorings, optional
Place candy canes in a plastic bag and hammer into 1/4-inch chunks or smaller. Melt the chocolate in a double boiler. Combine candy cane chunks with chocolate (add peppermint flavoring at this point if desired.) Pour mixture onto a cookie sheet layered with parchment or waxed paper and place in the refrigerator for 45 minutes or until firm. Remove from cookie sheet and break into pieces (like peanut brittle.)

That good, huh?
As a Nashville product, this might be something local/yummy to ship the relatives. Thanks for the rec!
Scratch that. King Leo used to be local, but was apparently bought by a California company and all the old-fashioned equipment moved there.
PMS? Now?!! I eat enough chocolate as it is this time of year.
