: 25 minutes
Ingredients
- 2 cups semi-sweet melting chocolates
- 2 cups white chocolate melting wafers
- ½ cup white non-pareil sprinkles
- ½ cup red, green, and white non-pareil sprinkles
- ½ cup crushed candy canes
Instructions
Prepare the sprinkles. Arrange your sprinkles and crushed candy into 3 separate rows about ¼ inch deep. I used a serving dish with high edges. You can also use 3 separate plates if that makes things easier for you!
Melt the chocolate. In a microwave-safe bowl, melt one chocolate according to package instructions. Make sure you melt just one before using it because the chocolate hardens very fast, and you don’t want to have to melt the second chocolate twice.
Make the candy. Transfer the melted chocolate to a piping bag or a zip lock bag with a small hole cut in the tip. Pipe a circle about ½ inch in diameter over the sprinkles. Repeat this until you have used all of the chocolate or half of the sprinkles are used.
Remove the candy. Let the chocolate sit on the sprinkles for about 5 minutes or until they are hardened. You can put them in the refrigerator for a minute to speed this process up. Once hardened, use a fork to scoop the candy out of the sprinkles.
Repeat. Repeat this process with the remaining flavor of chocolate, starting with the heating process.
Finish. Place your candies into a bowl, mason jar, or gift bag. You can package them as gifts or serve them right away!
