- Form into triangular peaks, using about 1 rounded teaspoon of mixture for each. Put on waxed paper lined cookie sheet. Let dry for 20 minutes.
- Melt chocolate in bowl over simmering water (or in microwave in one minute intervals until melted).
- Dip base of each candy in chocolate. Let stand on waxed paper to set.
- Store in covered tin in the refrigerator.
