While the candy is setting up, place nut butter inside a plastic bag. Then snip off the corner. Remove the candy from the freezer and squeeze the nut butter into each cavity. Fill to just under the top of the mold. The Grinch’s journey makes for such a feel good story and movie. So, keeping with that notion, I created these Grinch heart candies, which are similar to peanut butter cups. Not only do they look adorable, but they also taste great. (Because who doesn’t love chocolate?) I make a few batches of this holiday treat each year for party guests as well as homemade holiday food gifts. Otherwise, I recommend using a double boiler. I like this double boiler because it easily sits in most common kitchen saucepans. To melt your candy wafers in a double boiler, simply place water in the bottom pot. Then heat over medium heat. Place the green wafers in the insert. Then stir occasionally until the candy melts. Next, use a spoon to add melted candy to fill the remainder of each of the 12 mold cavities. Place the candy-filled mold in the freezer for an addition 10 minutes to allow the candies to set up.
If it’s within your budget, then I recommend investing in a Wilton melting pot. It’s very easy to use. Just measure your melting wafers and place them in the liner of the pot. Then turn it on and stir it every few minutes until the wafers are melted. It doesn’t get hot enough to burn the wafers. So, you don’t have to worry about that. Double BoilerMany of these recipes can be made with simple ingredients you have at home or can find in grocery stores. If you don’t have almond butter, or prefer to use another substitution, you can use any one of the following nut butters in its place:
These bite sized goodies are just the thing to make and share this holiday season. Anyone who likes the Grinch will love these.
