Line a 9x13 baking pan with parchment paper and set aside.
In a double boiler, melt the dark chocolate chips over low heat, stirring regularly. Then add half the peppermint extract.
Stir to combine and pour into prepared baking pan and spread an even layer of dark chocolate.
Refrigerate pan until chocolate has set, about 15-30 minutes.
Repeat to make a layer of white chocolate, then pour over the chilled chocolate layer.
Spread quickly to prevent the bottom layer from bleeding into the white chocolate.
Sprinkle as much crushed peppermint as desired and gently pressing them in.
Refrigerate pan until chocolate has fully set, about 15-30 minutes, then break bark into pieces.

Use quality chocolate, it makes a big difference in flavor and texture.
Let the dark chocolate set before adding the white layer to keep them distinct.
Smaller pieces stick better and make cutting easier.
Melt chocolate slowly over low heat in the microwave or use a double boiler for smooth results.
Chill until fully hardened before breaking into pieces.
If you set in the fridge do not leave longer than 30 minutes as condensation will build up
