Allow the milk chocolate-dipped graham crackers to set completely.
04 -
Melt the white chocolate in the same manner as the milk chocolate, using 30-second intervals and stirring until smooth.

Dip the other end of each graham cracker square into the melted white chocolate and immediately sprinkle with the crushed candy canes.
06 -
Allow the white chocolate-dipped graham crackers to set completely.
# Notes and Tips:
01 -
Ghirardelli candy melts for both chocolate and white chocolate are recommended as no tempering is needed, and the taste is excellent.
02 -
To speed up the setting process, place the dipped graham crackers in the refrigerator for about 15 minutes.
03 -
Store the set crackers in an airtight container at room temperature or in the fridge for a chilled texture.
04 -
To crush candy canes, place them in a plastic bag and use a rolling pin to crush them.
05 -
Dark chocolate can be substituted for milk chocolate for a richer flavor.
06 -
For a twist, use chocolate graham crackers or swap for saltine crackers or Ritz crackers for a salty variation.
