How to make Valentine’s Lollipops
First preheat your oven to 275 degrees Fahrenheit.
Then line a cookie sheet with parchment paper.
Next place 3 Jolly Ranchers together vertically. Tip: Be sure the Jolly Ranchers are touching and to leave enough space to add the lollipop stick later. Spacing about two inches apart from each other.
Next put in the oven for 6 minutes or until the Jolly Ranchers are completely melted.
Once melted remove from the oven and immediately add a lollipop stick to each one. Decorate with eyeballs and sprinkles to make little monster faces. Tip: Make sure to move fast because the candy will start to harden quickly.
Let the suckers cool for 20-30 minutes.
