Notes

I have made this recipe with both salted and unsalted better and couldn't tell any difference.
I used a stand mixer, but a hand mixer is an option.
I recently discovered that it's easier to melt more candy melts rather than less. I used a whole bag for a double recipe and had some left over. The melts became much thinner with a larger amount. Just follow the instructions on the package.
