Add the peppermint extract to one of the melted chocolates, and stir well. Or add ⅛ to each bowl of chocolate
Pour both chocolates onto a wax-paper lined baking sheet, spread out with spatula, next to each other, allow to cool just slightly
Swirl together with sharp knife or toothpick. Bark should be about ⅛ inch thick. Sprinkle top with crushed peppermint candies, and place in refrigerator until solid.
