Peppermint Stick Sauce

We had warm brownies and vanilla ice cream topped with this sauce. It's so pretty, and the kids loved it! From the Nov/Dec 2008 "Simple and Delicious" magazine (by Taste of Home).

1.5 cups crushed peppermint candies
1 c. heavy whipping cream
1 jar (7 oz.) marshmallow creme

In a heavy saucepan, combine all ingredients. Cook and stir over low heat until candy is completely melted and mixture is smooth. Remove from heat. Store in the refrigerator.

*Tip: Crush the mints as much as you can, as I found that the bigger pieces kind of clumped together and took longer to melt. This sauce thickens as it cools and is quite thin when served warm.
