Have you ever seen a picture on Pinterest and just thought, “I must cancel all my plans and make this immediately.” That’s how I felt with this peppermint whipped cream! It’s just so beautiful and festive. For me, peppermint season lasts all of winter, not just the holidays.

1/2 cup round peppermint candy
1 cup whipping cream
3 drops peppermint oil
