How to make Homemade Hard Peppermint Candy to giveaway as Christmas Gifts

22 December 2007 4 Comments Disclosure

Today, I will be spending a lot of time in the kitchen. Every year, I try to giveaway a gift to family and friends that I have personally made. This year I am making Homemade Hard Peppermint Candy. I will put the candy in Christmas Jars that I found at the Dollar Store and give them as gifts on Christmas Eve.

Homemade Hard Peppermint Candy

For those of you that want my treasured homemade hard peppermint candy recipe you can find it at my recipe site, Recipe Rush. This recipe is so easy to make, I don’t see why you would ever buy candy from a store again. You don’t have to just make peppermint, you can buy different flavored oils to make all different kinds of candy like butterscotch, lemon, or even grape. Whatever you have a taste for really can be made into a hard candy.

If you try out the recipe or have any questions please don’t hesitate to ask. I’ll try to help any way I can. I love hearing from others how the recipe worked for them, so don’t forget to comment.

Happy Holidays! Let the candy making begin!!

    Oh! Oh! I do the same thing with those exact same jars from the Dollar Tree, except I fill them up with an assortment of chocolates from the bulk section of the grocery store-chocolate bells, peanut butter cups, chocolate covered mint patties, etc. People go crazy for them, and each one costs me around $3.00!
