Candy Canes as Valentine's Day Treats
A clever way to repurpose an everyday item.
Remove the cellophane wrapping from the canes and form hearts by placing them hook to hook and tail to tail on a nonstick
baking sheet or one lined with parchment paper. Bake at 350°F for 2 to 4 minutes (depending on the canes' size) or until they
stick together when you pinch the ends lightly. Cool thoroughly and remove with a spatula. If you want to make flat hearts
with psychedelic stripes, bake for 8 to 10 minutes.
