# Directions:
01 - Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and lightly grease it.
02 - Set the oven temperature to 300°F (150°C).
03 - Unwrap peppermint candies and place them on the prepared baking sheet in bow shapes formed by two overlapping circles joined in the middle, leaving space between each.
04 - Bake for 3 to 5 minutes until candies soften and begin to melt together; avoid letting them bubble.
05 - Remove from oven and, while warm, use a greased spatula to gently press candies at the center to form the bow shape; optionally pinch the center with greased tongs or fingers for definition.
06 - Allow the bows to cool fully on the baking sheet until firm.
07 - Before the candies set, sprinkle with edible glitter or sprinkles if desired.
08 - Once cooled and firm, carefully remove from parchment and store in an airtight container.
