  3. Be careful not to crush the candy canes too fine, as you want to have some small pieces for added texture.
  4. Make sure to cool the mixture completely before breaking it apart, so the chocolate can set properly.
  5. Avoid storing the Peppermint Buddies in a warm place, as the chocolate may melt and lose its crunchiness.
