Instructions
1. 1. Prepare Pan: Line an 8×8-inch (or 9×9-inch) baking pan with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
2. 2. Melt Chocolate: In a medium saucepan over low heat, combine white chocolate chips and sweetened condensed milk. Stir until melted and smooth. Remove from heat and stir in peppermint extract.

Notes
Use high-quality chocolate for the best flavor and texture.
Avoid overheating the chocolate to prevent it from seizing.
Get creative with toppings like chopped nuts or sprinkles.
Experiment with different extracts for flavor variations.
