Notes

It's best to melt the candy melts in a tall, narrow microwave-safe bowl to allow for enough depth in the melted candy melts to cover the ends of the sugar wafers.
If the melted candy melts are too thick for effective dipping, add 1 to 1 ½ teaspoons of vegetable oil to thin them.
If you have added vegetable oil to thin the candy melts, the candy melts will take longer to harden.
You will have leftover melted candy melts. Feel free, however, to add more sugar wafers to the recipe.
