    PEPPER SPRINKLES: Place on a non-stick pan & place in the oven, with just the pilot light, on over night to dry out. If you do not have a gas stove you can cook in electric oven at 140 degrees F. or the lowest setting on the oven for 30 minutes. Check peppers for dryness, cook longer if not dried out completely. Sprinkle over icing & serve.
