For an extra touch of elegance, sprinkle a pinch of sea salt on top of the crushed peppermint candies before refrigerating. If you don't have a silicone baking dish, line a regular baking pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang to easily lift the fudge out once set. Adjust the amount of peppermint extract to your liking, depending on how strong you want the peppermint flavor to be. This fudge can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
