Step 1

PREPARE PAN: Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or wax paper.

Step 2

MELT WHITE CHOCOLATE: Place white chocolate in the microwave-safe bowl. Microwave on High in 30 second increments. This means do 30 seconds, stir, another 30 seconds, stir and another 30 seconds - until chocolate melts into a smooth spreadable consistency.

Step 3

STIR IN FILLINGS (if using): Mix in roasted nuts, dried fruit or other fillings of your choice (note 2). Stir in a couple of drops of flavor extracts if you like (optional). If you are making white chocolate peppermint bark, skip this step.

Step 4

SPREAD OUT MIXTURE: Pour white chocolate mixture onto prepared baking sheet and spread in even thin layer, about 1/4 inch/64mm.

Step 5

ADD TOPPINGS (optional): Sprinkle on toppings of your choice (note 3), gently pressing them into chocolate to help them adhere. Sprinkle lightly with fine sea salt if desired.

Step 6

CHILL AND BREAK INTO PIECES: Place baking sheet of chocolate into fridge. Chill until hardened, about 20-30 minutes. Break into pieces.
