Ingredients
- 16 ounces candy melts, peppermint flavoured or white
- 4 ounces red candy melts
- 2 tablespoons crushed candy canes
- 3 tablespoons sprinkles, red and white holiday themed pretzels would be best
Instructions
- Lightly coat a baking sheet with non-stick cooking spray. Place a sheet of parchment paper onto it. The non-stick cooking spray will keep the parchment paper from sliding around when you smooth out the melted candy melts. Set the baking sheet aside for now.
- Place the candy melts into a microwave-safe bowl. Whenever you microwave candy melts, you should microwave on medium power for 30 seconds. Remove it from the microwave and stir well with a rubber spatula. Then, return it to the microwave and continue to melt in increments of 15 seconds, stirring well after each increment.
- Once smooth, pour the melted candy melts onto the prepared baking sheet. Use your spatula to smooth it out to an even layer.
- Next, repeat the melting process above with the red candy melts. Using a spoon, drizzle the melted red candy melts over the layer of white peppermint candy melts.
- Immediately top the entire thing with crushed candy canes, and any red and white candy or sprinkles you would like to use.
- Set the baking sheet aside for 30 minutes to cool.
- Then, transfer to your fridge to firm for another 60-90 minutes.
- Once completely firm, break into serving or bite-sized pieces.
