Main Ingredients
  • 19 pieces Peppermint Starlight Mints

Method
 

Preparation Steps
  1. Preheat the oven to 300 degrees Fahrenheit.
  2. Place silicon baking liner or parchment paper on a baking sheet.
  3. Lay one peppermint mint in the center of the baking liner. Surround it with six mints, touching and close together, forming a flower shape. Repeat with remaining mints to form a second circle around the first.
  4. Bake in the oven for approximately 8 minutes. Watch closely; they are done when shiny, spread out, and just beginning to melt.
  5. Prepare a small upside-down glass bowl to mold the candy into a bowl shape.
  6. Remove the baked mints from the oven and allow them to cool for about 30 seconds until manageable.
  7. Carefully flip the silicon liner with the mints onto the upside-down glass bowl, pressing gently to shape the candy into a bowl form. Use oven mitts to avoid burns. Work quickly before the mints harden.
  8. Allow the formed candy bowl to sit until completely set.
  9. Gently remove the candy bowl from the mold and let it cool completely.
  10. Fill the peppermint candy bowl with holiday treats or candies.
