How to Make White Chocolate Peppermint Candies
- Spray a standard ice cube tray generously with cooking spray.
- Sprinkle 1 teaspoon of crushed candy canes into the bottom of each ice cube compartment.
- In a microwave-safe bowl, melt 2 cups of white chocolate candy melts according to package directions. Pour approximately 2 tablespoons of melted chocolate into each ice cube compartment.
- Gently tilt the ice cube tray in all directions to ensure the chocolate coats the sides of each compartment.
- Place the tray in the freezer for 15-20 minutes, or until the chocolate is set.
- In a separate microwave-safe bowl, melt 1/2 cup of white chocolate candy melts with 1 tablespoon of heavy cream, 1/2 teaspoon peppermint extract, and a few drops of green food coloring (adjust to your desired shade). Stir until smooth and well combined.
- Evenly pour the peppermint white chocolate mixture into the ice cube compartments, over the previously set chocolate layer.
- Place the tray back in the freezer for another 15-20 minutes, or until the second layer is set.
- Melt the remaining 1/2 cup of white chocolate candy melts according to package directions. Drizzle or spoon this melted chocolate over the set peppermint layer to create a decorative top layer.
- Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the candies to fully set before removing them from the tray.
