The best way to get your peppermint candies done quickly, really fine or into dust for recipes like brownies, frosting or adding it to drinks is to use a food processor.

Place that Ziploc bag inside of another larger Ziploc bag.Do not make the bag air tight though, or the bag will perforate on the first smash. Seal the bag of candy well, but leave a small hole so you can place a straw in to suck out more air.Skip wrapping your Ziploc bag full of soon-to-be razor candy shards, with a grocery bag like some methods on the Internet suggests.Use a Ziploc bag and fill it nearly all the way with candy. ![]()
