Ingredients

  • 12 oz. package of Wilton red candy melts
  • holiday sprinkles
  • twine or ribbon
  • foil or parchment-lined baking sheet
  • small sandwich baggie
  • kitchen scissors

Instructions

  • Pour about half of the red candy melts (6 oz) into a microwave-safe dish. Heat the melts in the microwave in 30-second increments. Stir every time the microwave stops. Do this until the candy is fully melted.
  • Allow the chocolate to cool for a few minutes before using.
  • After allowing the chocolate to cool for a few minutes, scoop it into the small sandwich baggie. Squeeze the extra air out and make a small snip in the corner using the scissors.
  • To make the chocolate ornaments, squeeze the sandwich bag gently and make a circle of red chocolate. Once your circle is mad, you can go back and forth with the baggie, filling it in.
  • Make a small loop at the top of the chocolate ornament for the ribbon or twine if you wish.
  • Repeat, using the rest of the chocolate.
  • I made my ornaments about 2-3” big. I honestly wouldn't go too much bigger because they are fragile if left out. Store it in the fridge until you serve it or give it as a gift.
