Metal cookie cutters are a must! I love using this: Vintage Christmas Ornament Set and this: Snowflake Set! Preheat oven to 350F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Spray the inside of each cookie cutter with cooking spray.

Lay cookie cutters on baking sheet and fill with a layer of peppermints. Bake for 3-9 minutes. Keep an eye on candy as it melts, remove from oven when candies have melted together. Lightly coat a toothpick with cooking spray and use it to make a hole in each group of candies. Let candy sit inside cookie cutter until it re-hardens. Once hard, carefully stretch out the cookie cutter, pulling it away from the candy, to pop out your ornament. Wrap these peppermint treats individually in plastic wrap, if you’d like. • Many of you have contacted me about a sealer that would be suitable for this project.
