Grinch Candy Recipe for Christmas

Makes 12 candies

 

Ingredients:

 

• 6 oz light green candy melts
• 5 oz almond butter
• 12 candy heart sprinkles
• Heart candy mold
• Pastry brush
• 2 plastic baggies

Directions:

 

• Pour candy melts into a microwave safe bowl, setting about 10 aside for later, and heat in 30 seconds intervals, stirring well between each heating session, until fully melted.
• Drizzle a spoonful of melted candy into each mold cavity and use the pastry brush to coat the entire bottom and sides. Place in the freezer for 5 minutes.

• Put almond butter into a plastic baggie and snip off the corner, then drizzle almond butter into each candy-coated mold, filling it just under the top of the mold.
• Using a small spoon, add melted candy to fill the rest of each mold cavity. Place in the freezer for 10 minutes to set.

• Remove candies from the mold and place upright.
• Place the remaining 10 candy melts into a baggie and heat for 30 seconds in the microwave, remove and massage the bag. If not completely melted, heat in 10 second intervals, until melted.

• Snip off the corner of the baggie and add a small drop to the top of each candy, then top with a candy heart.
