　　In Epi's 3-Ingredient Recipes series, we show you how to make great food with just three ingredients (plus staples like oil, salt, and pepper).

　　To crush candies easily, minus any peppermint shrapnel, place them in a resealable plastic bag and crush with a rolling pin, meat mallet, or the back of a large spoon.

　　

Ingredients

Makes 28–30

　　12 ounces dark chocolate chips or chopped dark chocolate (preferably 63% cacao)

　　1 cup mini marshmallows

　　3/4 cup crushed peppermint candies or candy canes (about 4 1/2 ounces), divided

　　

Step 1

Line 2 rimmed baking sheets with parchment or wax paper. Heat chocolate in a medium heatproof bowl set over a medium pot of barely simmering water (bottom of bowl should not touch water), stirring occasionally, or in short bursts in the microwave, stirring in between bursts, until chocolate is melted and smooth.

　　

Step 2

Fold marshmallows and 1/2 cup candies into chocolate until evenly combined. Drop heaping tablespoonfuls of chocolate mixture onto prepared baking sheets; sprinkle with remaining 1/4 cup candies. Chill until set, about 30 minutes. Serve at room temperature.

　　

Do Ahead

Step 3

Candies can be made 5 days ahead; transfer to an airtight container and chill.
