Hi, y'all caught me just gathering everything up
0:06
to make our peppermint pie.
0:07
This is going to be a perfect ending to our meal.
0:11
We gonna start with heavy cream,
0:16
and a cup of crushed peppermint
0:19
and I'm going to do this the old fashioned way.
0:25
Okay. That looks to be about a cup.
0:28
I'm gonna mix my gelatin with a little bit of water
0:31
and let that dissolve for a second.
0:36
And we gonna pour up peppermint
0:41
and we gonna stir this until
0:43
our milk is totally incorporated.
0:48
We gonna add our gelatin
0:49
and this is going to act as our thickening agent for our pie
0:53
and you don't want to walk away from your pan on this.
0:55
It shouldn't take too long for that candy to melt.
0:58
I actually have some ready right here.
1:02
We'll just switch as, and let it melt.
1:05
And you'll find that when you melt your peppermint
1:08
that it turns up real, pretty caramel color.
1:13
Now our candy and our cream has cooled off nicely.
1:16
We gonna fold it into whipped cream
1:19
that's been whipped to a nice peak.
1:22
So just gon make sure I get all the goody
1:25
out of this sauce pot.
1:27
Now you want to be careful when folding
1:29
in your melted candy because you don't
1:32
wanna break down your whipping cream.
1:34
We've got that mixed in.
1:35
So all we're going to do is pile this
1:38
into a store-bought chocolate Cracker crumb crust.
1:43
And if you want to, you can make your own
1:46
out of Oreo cookies they are so good.
1:48
And we're just going to pile this in
1:50
and stick this in the refrigerator until it's sit.
1:54
And you see how, when it's mixed with a whipping cream
1:57
it's almost has a little light pinkish cast to it.
2:01
Okay? So we're just going to stick this in the fridge
2:04
and let it sit, which it won't take long
2:06
because it's got that gelatin in it.
2:10
And while that's setting up,
2:12
I'm gonna show you how to make
2:13
the easiest peppermint pine barks so simple.
2:17
For this one now, I've chosen
2:19
some of the just hard candy canes
2:24
and you can use any kind of peppermint you want for this
2:26
but we gonna just take, Oh! About that maybe.
2:30
And we gonna just take this and break them up
2:33
and I'm not going to break these very fine
2:36
'cause, I like to really crunch into the peppermint.
2:40
Now, I've got a couple of pounds of good
2:42
white chocolate Melten over the heat
2:44
and that look delicious.
2:48
See how that's just smooth and right on out
2:50
with that little bit of flame going into it.
2:52
And I'm gonna put about,
2:55
maybe a half a teaspoon of peppermint flavoring.
2:58
But we gonna have the peppermint from the candy
3:01
and the peppermint from the flavorings
3:03
that white chocolate looks yummy though.
3:07
All right. Now, all we gonna do.
3:09
We don't wanna melt our peppermint.
3:11
So, we're not gonna stir it in until
3:14
we're totally done with the heat.
3:18
And I've got, just an ordinary cookie sheet
3:20
lined with parchment paper
3:22
and I'm just gonna fold that candy into that chocolate.
3:26
And then we're just gonna spread it all onto our pan,
3:30
now, you can make it as thick with the candy as you like,
3:34
just gonna spread that out
3:35
and you can just hold onto your piece of paper
3:37
so it won't slide away with you.
3:40
Ain't that pretty the way you can see the pieces of candy.
3:43
All we gonna do is chill.
3:45
Then we're gonna stick in the refrigerator.
3:48
And I happen to have some already cooling in here.
3:56
That's ready to break out.
4:01
And I've got a pie ready
4:03
and I've even got some more whipping cream.
4:10
- So see how simple that was.
4:12
And you have a great candy and it just lifted right off.
4:16
Now, all you have to do is just break this
4:19
into any shape you want
4:21
in as big a piece as you want.
4:23
This is a fun little thing to have the children do.
4:27
So, our peppermint bark is ready.
4:31
Like I do my hairdo real high.
4:34
So I'm gonna bring this one up a little bit
4:37
by adding whip cream to it.
4:41
Now I'm using heavy cream.
4:44
That's been sweetened with a little sugar
4:46
and I'm just going to pile that nice and hone it.
4:49
It almost looks like Marang, don't it
4:51
now to finish our pie.
4:53
I have some crushed peppermint candies
4:56
and I'm just gonna give it a little sprinkle.
5:01
Don't that look delicious?
5:08
You'll wanna work your crust away from your container.
5:16
I'm going to put me Just a few sprinkles on my plate.
5:23
Oh, damn. That look good.
5:27
And I think out to chase that piece of pie
5:30
with some peppermint bark don't y'all?
5:37
Oh gosh, it looks delicious.
5:44
See why I put those crumbs on that plate so
5:47
I could take my fork and go in and get me a few extra
6:09
