# How to make it:

01 - Preheat the oven to 300°F (150°C).
02 - Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
03 - Arrange peppermint candies in a tight circular pattern about 7–8 inches in diameter on the lined baking sheet, ensuring the edges touch but do not overlap.
04 - Bake the candies for 6 to 8 minutes until they have melted together but before bubbling or browning begins; watch closely.
05 - After removing from the oven, let cool for 30 seconds, then quickly drape the pliable melted candy disc (parchment side up) over an inverted heatproof bowl to shape it, gently molding with oven mitts if necessary.
06 - Allow the candy bowl to cool completely and harden for about 10 minutes, then carefully remove the parchment and lift the bowl off the mold.
07 - Fill the bowl with treats or wrap it carefully for gifting.
