Ingredients
To make one dozen treats:
- 24-container Mini candy canes
- about six oz. of brown chocolate melts – you’ll have some excess
- 12 red candy for the nose, like Sixlets or mini M&Ms
- 24 candy eyes
- Optional holly sprinkles
Extra equipment needed:
- wax paper
- toothpick
- small microwave-proof bowl
Instructions
- Melt the chocolate in the microwave-proof bowl. I usually pop it into the microwave for 1 minute, stir it, and throw it back in for 30 more seconds.
- Have some wax paper ready on your work surface, and set out your supplies
- Dip the candy canes into the chocolate, one at a time – placing them down in pairs facing the opposite way on the wax paper.
- After you have made each pair of chocolate candy canes, decorate them while the chocolate is still melted and warm.
- Add the eyes and the nose
- If you want, you can add the holly sprinkles
- If the chocolate has already dried before you can stick the decorations on, dip your toothpick into the chocolate and use that as chocolate glue to adhere your pieces
That’s it. Just repeat 11 more times for one dozen Rudolph Treats
