2. It is best to add the candy (last step above) just before serving the dip. Once you have mixed in the whipped topping, if you are not going to serve the dip right away you should refrigerate it.
3. For additional flavor, you can add a half teaspoon of extract such as peppermint extract or cake batter extract.
