This candy is a tasty treat and is quick and easy to throw together for a last minute gift or party!
Here is all that you need:
1 package each Wilton Dark Cocoa Mint Candy Melts
1 package Wilton Candy Cane Colorburst Candy Melts
Snowflake Mold by Martha Stewart Crafts
Shopping the Michael's Thanksgiving Sale, this all cost me only $4.20 and will make about 24 large pieces of candy! (Not including candy dish that was hiding in the attic!) Best of all, this takes only about a half hour to make, making 8 pieces at a time. If you need to make tons of these, you will probably want more than one snowflake mold!
Here is how you make them:
(Making 8 at a time)
1. Melt about 1 cup of Wilton Candy Cane Colorburst Candy Melts in the microwave for about 1 minute in microwave safe bowl.
2. Spoon about a tablespoon into the mold filling cavity about 1/3 full, tapping down after filling ever 2 or 3 cavities.
3. After all cavities in the mold have the first layer of candy place in the refrigerator for 2 or 3 minutes.
4. Repeat with Dark Cocoa Mint Candy Melts.
5. Let molded candy set up in the refrigerator an additional 5 minutes or until easily unmolds. If they dont pop right out, they aren't quite ready.
These candies could be wrapped individually with a pretty bow for a class party or stocking stuffer.
Placed on a nice candy tray and wrapped in cellophane and a bow, this would make a cute gift for a teacher, a hostess gift, or a last minute item to bring to a last minute Christmas party!
