This is a fun and quick recipe I made for our neighbor kids last week. After seeing it on Kristan's blog, and knowing I had a block of candy melt in my pantry, I set out to make it right away. I used Kristan's concept, but decided to leave out the cherry flavoring, since I don't like cherry candy, and I didn't have cherry candy flavoring anyway. So, I just used the dark chocolate M&M's in Valentine's Day colors.
The blocks of candy melts actually come with a microwave safe container to melt your chocolate in. So, this was super easy to clean up. Just melt in the microwave, pour into the lined pan, then toss the disposable container. Easy peasy!
