Peppermint Toffee Bark
If there’s one thing I love to enjoy during the holidays, it’s toffee. It’s a weakness of mine and something I can never resist. This peppermint toffee bark combines two of my favorites peppermint bark and graham cracker toffee!
This white chocolate peppermint toffee is similar to saltine cracker toffee, but is made with graham crackers and white chocolate with crushed candy canes on top that add the perfect peppermint crunch. If you’re feeling extra festive, you can even dye some of the chocolate red and drizzle it on top. :)
If you’re a peppermint fan, you have to put this recipe and homemade hard candy on your baking list. It’s the perfect homemade Christmas food gift!
Peppermint Cracker Toffee Ingredients
- Unsalted butter
- Brown sugar
- Graham crackers
- White chocolate melting wafers
- Candy canes
How to Make Peppermint Bark Toffee
- Line pan with graham crackers. Cover a large half-sheet jelly roll pan with foil, then spray with nonstick spray. Line the pan with graham crackers until completely covered.
- Make the caramel. Melt butter and sugar in a medium pot over low/medium-low heat (continue stirring). Then bring to a boil over medium-heat for about 2 1/2 to 3 minutes.
- Spread caramel over crackers. When the mixture is bubbly with a golden amber color, remove from heat and pour over crackers. Then spread out evenly with a knife.
- Bake in oven. Place pan in oven and bake at 325°F for 7 to 9 minutes. Then remove from oven and let cool slightly.
- Add toppings. Melt the chocolate melting wafers until smooth, then pour over caramel mixture and smooth with a spatula. Immediately sprinkle the crushed candy canes on top and then place in freezer for about 15 minutes to harden. Then break pieces off the foil and enjoy!

Peppermint Graham Cracker Toffee Recipe
Ingredients
- ½ cup unsalted butter
- ½ cup light brown sugar
- 1 package graham crackers
- 1 cup white chocolate melting wafers
- 2 candy canes , crushed
Instructions
- Prep. Preheat oven to 325°F. Line a large half-sheet jelly roll pan with aluminum foil. Spray the foil with non-stick cooking spray and then line the pan with graham crackers.
- Melt butter with sugar. Place 1/2 cup butter and 1/2 cup brown sugar in a medium-sized pot over low/medium-low heat. Stir until the butter is melted. Once the butter has melted, bring to a boil over medium heat for 2 1/2 -3 minutes.
- Pour over graham crackers. Once it’s nice and bubbly and changed to more of a caramel color, remove pan from heat and pour evenly over crackers. Spread mixture with a knife, however it doesn’t have to be perfect. Try to move fast during this part so the toffee doesn’t harden.
- Bake. Place pan in the oven and bake for 7-9 minutes.
- Add chocolate and candy canes. Remove pan from oven and allow to cool slightly. Melt 1 cup white chocolate and then pour over the top with a spatula. Sprinkle 2 crushed candy canes on top and then place in the freezer for 15 minutes. If desired, drizzle red chocolate on top. Once chocolate has hardened, break pieces off the foil and place in a container. It will stay fresh for 1 week.

just made this & its great. I used what I had on hand which was chocolate chip morsels that I melted in a double boiler instead of white chocolate- amazing!
What if you don’t have a freezer OR fridge large enough to put the pan in? 😬
You can just let it sit on the counter until they harden (or stick outside if it’s cold enough for few minutes).
Oh, good idea! It’s like 15 degrees outside 😂
We always make this every Christmas season! Our extended family loves it, kids love it, it is a hit for all!
I’m so happy to hear that! Happy holidays, Brooke :)
