Date-Sweetened Peppermint Bark (w/ 'candy cane' topping) (Vegan, Paleo, Nut-Free, Fruit-Sweetened)

A Christmas without peppermint bark just doesn't feel like Christmas. Which is why for those of you fellow non-sugar-consuming, gluten-free vegans I've created a recipe for vegan fruit-sweetened peppermint bark, so you don't have to feel left out from all that chocolatey, peppermint-y goodness. Even better? This peppermint bark is paleo and nut-free (but not coconut-free). Plus it has a DIY "candy cane" topping that's free of sweeteners, yet doesn't sacrifice on the crunch, peppermint flavor, or red color characteristic of crushed candy canes. The melt-in-your-mouth consistency of this bark combined with rich white and dark chocolate and peppermint flavors won't disappoint. So light those holiday-scented candles, pour a mug of (vegan) hot chocolate, throw on an ugly sweater, and get ready to do some (easy) holiday baking!
