My mother gave me a few cooking magazines when we bought our first home and I remembered that I had made these over the Christmas holidays and they were a huge hit. All you take is the soft peppermint stick candy and in a heavy small sauce pan, combine 4oz chopped bitersweet or semisweet chocolate and 1 teaspoon shortening. Heat & stir over low heat until melted. Chop up any type of nuts you desire and/or sprinkles. Dip the peppermint candy into the chocolate and then roll in the topping. Place on waxed paper & let stand until set. Recipe from the Better Homes & Gardens Special Interest Publications "Holiday Cooking."
