Ingredients
  • 24 green Mike and Ike candies
  • 48 Almond M&M's you can also use Peanut M&M's or Jordan Almonds
Instructions
  1. Cut the green Mike & Ike candies in half. I used a lighter to heat up my knife so I got really clean cuts in the Mike and Ikes. Just carefully hold the knife blade over the flame for a few seconds to heat it up then cut through the candies. If making these with kids, skip the flame and be safe!
  2. Immediately press the sticky cut side of the Mike and Ike candy onto the wider end of an Almond M&M.
  3. Repeat to create as many M&M and Mike and Ike Christmas Lights as you want.
Recipe Notes

Serve them as is in a candy dish or use them to decorate a cake or cupcakes.

Store the candy Christmas lights at room temperature for up to a month.
