- ½ teaspoon peppermint extract
- 3 (4-ounce) bars white chocolate, chopped

Instructions
- Line a 13x9-inch baking pan with foil, letting excess extend over sides.
- In a medium saucepan, combine milk, butter, sugar, salt, vanilla extract, and peppermint extract over high heat, whisking often. Bring mixture to a rolling boil. Reduce heat to medium, stirring constantly, until mixture registers 234° on a candy thermometer. Remove from heat, and stir in white chocolate, marshmallow crème, and 1 cup candy. Immediately spread into prepared pan. Freeze for 2 hours.
