- 3 oz cream cheese softened
- 1 TB butter
- 3 cups confectioners sugar
- 4 drops peppermint extract
In a large bowl, combine cream cheese, butter, and powdered sugar. Cream together until well blended.
Add in peppermint extract, one drop at a time.
Separate into small bowls and add gel food coloring as desired and mix well.
Roll into small balls, and place on parchment paper. Use a fork dipped in powdered sugar, to flatten each ball or place into molds.
Let dry on wax paper for about 2 hours then freeze or refrigerate.
- Be patient with the process because if you try to do this too quickly, the mints might come apart in the mold.
