Peppermint Toads

Ingredients
frog or toad chocolate candy mold
white chocolate candy melts
peppermint candy flavoring oil
(chocolate chips or other chocolate)

Instructions
You can use food coloring to make the white candy melts any color you'd like, since green would be appropriate. Since I had so much brown chocolate already, I decided my Peppermint Toads would be white.
Melt the white chocolate according to the instructions.
Use a toothpick to add peppermint oil drop by drop until you have the desired taste. Be careful, since the peppermint oil is VERY strong!
Spoon the flavored chocolate mixture into the candy mold and let harden in the refrigerator.
When solid, pop out your toads and add the eyes with a small paintbrush and melted chocolate chips.
These can be frozen, just thaw before serving.
