I'll Take You To The Candy Shop

Are you wearing a bib? Prepare to drool. You were warned!

Drooling yet? Thought so! Just like Mr. Wonka, what we've got ourselves here is a scrum-diddly-umptious candy.  

But how does (s)he do it?! Mr. Wonka was a little secretive about his recipes... but I'm not!

What You Need:

I made these chocolate beauties using... 

• melted chocolate, 
• melted white chocolate, 
• peppermint candies, 
• and a rose mold (not the one seen in the picture - but found at Hobby Lobby).

What You Need To Do:

• Melt the chocolate (regular or white - really just depends on your personal preference) in 30 second intervals. Use a thin, microwaveable bowl (that means not your thick, ceramic bowl - it will scorch the chocolate and that's just no fun). 
• Once the chocolate looks semi-melted, take it out and start stirring. Melted chocolate doesn't always change shape once it gets soft, so if you don't do this, you'll overheat them because they don't look melted.
• If you're adding peppermint (or granola? graham cracker? get creative!), dump it in the bowl and fold/stir it in.
• Spoon into molds.
• Freeze for 5 minutes.
• Take the mold out, flip it upside down and pop out your candy (just like an ice tray)!

Yes, you may call me Willy Wonka.
