Time 2h40m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 cups whipping (heavy) cream
1 package (6 ounces) white baking bars, broken into 1-inch pieces
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/4 teaspoon peppermint extract
1/2 package (17.3-ounce size) frozen puff pastry (1 sheet), thawed
3/4 cup chocolate-flavor syrup
6 to 8 coarsely crushed hard peppermint candies

Steps:

  • In 2-quart saucepan, heat whipping cream and baking bar pieces over low heat, stirring constantly, until melted and smooth. Stir in vanilla and peppermint extract. Cool slightly. Cover and refrigerate at least 2 hours until chilled.
  • Heat oven to 400°F. Cut pastry sheet crosswise into 4 strips, then lengthwise into 3 strips to make 12 rectangles. Place on ungreased cookie sheet. Bake 12 to 15 minutes or until golden brown. Split horizontally in half while warm.
  • In small bowl, beat white chocolate mixture with electric mixer on high speed until stiff (do not overbeat). Place bottom halves of pastry pieces, split sides up, on serving plates. Fill each with about 1/3 cup white chocolate mixture; add tops of pastry pieces. Drizzle with chocolate syrup. Sprinkle with candies.
