The minute I saw this on Pinterest I knew I had to make it. Such a neat idea and great for displaying your own holiday treats or those you plan to give away.

| This is what the tray looked like when it came out of the oven. |
A couple of warnings: 1) Use parchment paper. The original post said either parchment or wax paper would work. Wax paper sticks to the melted candies and when I tried to pull it off, the tray broke. I did fit the pieces back together onto parchment and reheated the tray (for only a couple of minutes) successfully. 2) Begin checking the tray in about 6 or 7 minutes (oven temperatures can vary) and watch very closely -- in just a minute, the candies can go from almost melted to being a soupy mess.
Peppermint Serving Tray
1 pkg. peppermint candies
1. Heat oven to 350°
2. Place parchment
paper on cookie sheet
3. Arrange mints in
any design you wish on top of parchment
paper on a cookie sheet.
4. Bake for
approximately 8 to 10 minutes (check at 8 minutes) and then watch carefully.
5. Remove from oven
and allow to cool on cookie sheet {cools in approximately 5 minutes}
6. Remove parchment paper
from bottom {be careful, tray is fragile and breaks easily.)
