Step one: Melt semisweet chocolate to make the bottom layer.

On the Stovetop: Heat a double boiler over medium heat on the stove top. Once heated, add one teaspoon of avocado oil to the pan of a double boiler and remove from heat. Add 12 ounces of semisweet chocolate to heated pan and stir, folding and mixing gently until chocolate is melted. Place back onto low heat as needed until chocolate is melted and smooth. Do not overheat chocolate. Heat low and slow to avoid scorching.

In the Microwave: Add 12 ounces semisweet chocolate chips to a microwave safe bowl and heat at 500 watts for 30 seconds. Stir and heat for another 25 seconds. Remove before all of the chocolate chips are fully melted to avoid scorching chocolate. Once removed continue to stir until chocolate is smooth.

Spread the Chocolate. Pour melted semisweet chocolate onto a sheet pan or into a baking dish lined with parchment paper or aluminum foil. Using a rubber spatula spread evenly forming a 9” x 14” rectangle that is approximately ⅛ of an inch or 0.3 cm thick.

Place in the freezer to chill for 10-15 minutes until almost set, or chill in the refrigerator for 25 minutes or until almost set.

Step Two: Make the top layer

If your bottom layer of semisweet is fully chilled allow it to sit at room temperature for approximately 5 minutes before layering on melted white chocolate. This will allow the two layers to bind.

Melt White Chocolate: Repeat the above stovetop and microwave instructions. When microwaving your white chocolate use 20 second bursts, checking and stirring every 20 seconds, as white chocolate can scorch easily.

Allow the white chocolate to cool for a moment, stirring to release heat, then pour onto the semisweet chocolate layer and spread evenly with a spatula to cover the bottom layer.

Immediately sprinkle crunched candy cane pieces evenly over the white chocolate layer, gently pressing them into the chocolate with the back of a spoon.

Place into refrigerator or freezer until chilled. Break into pieces and arrange on a plate or platter. Garnish with sprigs of fresh green herbs or as desired.
