Tools needed to make peppermint candy spoons:
- Silicone spoon mold
- Parchment paper
- Meat tenderizer
- Cutting board
Ingredients:
- Starlight peppermint candies – 3-4 candies per spoon
How to make DIY Peppermint spoons:
Preheat the oven to 250 degrees F.
Use the flat side of a meat tenderizer to crush 3 candies per spoon. Crush the candies inside of a plastic bag. It’s best to do this on top of a plastic cutting board. Tap lightly, it’s just candy so it will not require much force. Place one whole candy in the top of the Silicone spoon mold, then add the crushed candy to the remainder of the mold.
Place the candy mold on top of a parchment lined sheet pan. Bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes. Add additional crushed candy if needed, then bake for an additional 5-10 minutes.
Remove the mold from the oven and allow it to cool completely before removing the candy spoons.
Use the candy spoons to stir your hot chocolate to make peppermint hot cocoa.
