PEPPERMINT BARK CHEESECAKE

If you love chocolate, peppermint and Oreo you’ll love this cake. It has three delicious layer-Oreo crust, creamy cheesecake filling loaded with peppermint bark pieces and white chocolate ganache on top garnished with crushed candy canes, whipped cream and dark chocolate.
Don’t let the recipe instructions discourage you. It’s like two recipe in one because you’ll have to make homemade peppermint bark first and then use it to make the cake, but it’s really simple, I promise!
Your peppermint bark doesn’t have to look perfect, it will end up chopped and mixed into cheesecake filling. All you need to do is to melt separately dark chocolate and white chocolate, stir in a few drops of peppermint extract, spread it onto parchment paper and sprinkled with crushed candy canes or hard peppermint candies. You can do this step a few days in advance, but it’s incredibly dangerous. It could be so hard not to eat it but save this yummy treat for the cake.
