Valentine's Day Suckers

By Jody Lynn Chin, Publisher Mom February 8, 2012

What do you do with left over candy canes?  Make Valentine's Day Suckers of course!

  • Candy Canes
  • Lollipop Sticks you can get at Michaels or Joanns in the Baking section
  • Baking pan

 

Heat your oven to 250 degrees and cook for 6 – 8 min depending on the candy cane -  some melt a little faster than others.   I just did one first so I knew how long it would take for the rest.   

Then, after they have cooked for 6 – 8 min, just press the ends that are not connected together and push the stick in.  Let it cool for 10 min and it should be hard enough and be stuck together.   

Kind of a yummy and cute way to get rid of the candy canes!  Put a small cello bag on with a ribbon tied around the bottom and it makes a cute little gift.
