Hot Chocolate Stirrers

{Whip up these little stirrers to give as gifts or just have on hand for your own hot chocolate.}


 Just a few supplies and about half an hour and you’ll have a whole stack of these cute peppermint and caramel candies on a stick.

Supplies:
Hot drink straws (found these by the coffee filters at my grocery store)
Peppermint swirl candies
Wrapped caramels
Parchment paper
Cooking spray

Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper and spray lightly with cooking spray.  Heat oven to 300.

Unwrap candies.

Stagger 8-10 peppermints on the sheet (more than that and they’ll get too crowded, and start to cool before you can get a stick in each one)

Bake for 7 minutes.  While they’re baking, you can assemble the caramel ones.  They don’t need to go into the oven because they’re soft enough.  Just press the caramel onto the end of a straw!


Remove candies from the oven and use a twisting motion to get the end of the straw stuck into the candy.

Let cool on the sheet, then peel off.


Wrap them individually–or in pairs–with plastic wrap and tie with string.  


Now you have flavored stirrers to serve with your hot chocolate or to give away with cocoa packets.  Enjoy!

And just so ya know, aside from one post wrapping up the highlights on the blog in 2013, I’m taking I blog vacation for the rest of the year. I’ll be having fun with my parents, all my siblings, and hanging out with my husband and kids over the break.  Merry Christmas!

I trust this message finds you well.

We are presently in the process of increasing our online presence and growing our organic traffic and Google rankings. We are doing advertising on CBD and vape mags, CBD Store Directory listings and more. We are also building backlinks on CBD blogs. I wanted to find out how much it would cost to public a couple of blog posts with backlinks on your site craftingintherain.com?

As you can appreciate, the CBD market is becoming cut throat and without these CBD backlinks, we will not be able to compete. A website that is on page two is in the Google graveyard where nobody goes :)

I look forward to hearing from you. Our objective is to build as many CBD backlinks as possible. If you have any other CBD sites, please let me know.

Kind regards
