Ingredients

  • 2 cups semisweet chocolate chips

  • ½ cup chopped nuts (walnuts, pecans, or almonds)
  • ½ cup dried fruit (cranberries, cherries, or apricots)
  • ½ cup crushed peppermint candies
  • Sprinkles or edible glitter (for decoration)

Instructions

1. Melt the Chocolate
In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the semisweet chocolate chips in 30-second intervals, stirring in between until smooth. Do the same with the white chocolate chips in a separate bowl.

2. Prepare the Candy Molds
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or use silicone candy molds for shaping the chocolates.

3. Fill with Chocolate
Using a spoon or a piping bag, fill the molds with the melted semisweet chocolate, leaving a little space at the top for toppings. If you’re using a baking sheet, drop spoonfuls of chocolate onto the parchment paper.

4. Add Toppings
Sprinkle the chopped nuts, dried fruit, and crushed peppermint candies on top of the melted chocolate while it’s still warm. Drizzle the melted white chocolate over the candies for a decorative touch.

5. Chill to Set
Place the baking sheet or molds in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes, or until the chocolate has completely set.

6. Enjoy or Gift
Once set, carefully remove the chocolates from the molds or peel them off the parchment paper. Package them in festive tins or boxes for gifts, or enjoy them yourself during the holiday festivities!
