Unicorn Heart Candies have a delicious surprise in the center. A chocolate sandwich cookie is tucked in the middle for extra flavor and as a delightful and unexpected surprise. (it also saves on the amount of chocolate you will have to use)
What do I need to Make Unicorn Heart Candies.
- A silicone heart mold
- White and pink, candy melts
- Silicone mold for the unicorn horn
- Chocolate sandwich cookies
- Sprinkles
- Gold or yellow ink pen to color the horn
Let’s Make the Unicorn Heart Candies.
- Melt the candy melts in the microwave or on top of the stove.
- Put some candy in the bottom of each heart mold.
- Add a chocolate sandwich cookie and fill the well with more candy melts until the cookie is covered.
- Chill the candy for 2 hours or overnight.
- Unmold and decorate the heart.
- Draw the eye’s on with a black candy marker. Add the horn and sprinkles. The ears are a mini marshmallow cut on the diagonal. Attach the horn and ears with a little melted chocolate.
To decorate the candies. Attach all of the decorations to the heart with melted candy melts. I use the sprinkle pops found on amazon. Sprinkle Pop makes a unicorn mix that has a little wafer-thin unicorn that is adorable.
