I decided to pass on the cookies this year and make something different. These were easier than I thought they would be to make and I was able to pick up all the supplies at my local grocery store. They taste good and look great. The second picture doesn't due them justice (I was in a hurry when I took that photo).
Supplies:
- peppermint candy canes (buy an extra box because they break easily)
- 1-2 bags of chocolate chips
- 1 bag of white chocolate chips
- sprinkles if desired
- red ribbon
- plastic sandwich bags that don't zip
- wax paper
Instructions
- unwrap all the candy canes and place them on the wax paper so that you allow enough space for them once they are dipped
- melt chocolate chips in microwave in a tall glass.
- dip the candy cane and place it on the wax paper to dry
- while drying heat up the white chocolate chips (you don't need much)
- use a spoon or butter knife and dip it in the melted while chocolate and drizzle over the chocolate dipped candy canes
- add sprinkles
- when dry I put 2-4 in a bag and folded the folded (sandwich part) of the bag over the bottom of the candy canes so that they were completely covered
- tie the bow and you are done
they store best in the fridge until you eat them
