Homemade Peppermint Patties
Homemade Peppermint Patties
brought by Linda Matheny to my party 12/17/05.
Mix together well:
1 lb. xx sugar
3 TBS butter
1/2 tsp. peppermint OIL
1/2 tsp. vanilla
about 3 TBS water.
Mix up into a smooth ball.
Make little same-size balls, 1 tsp. or 1 TBS.
Refrigerate balls a little while, not very long
Smoosh balls into patties with the bottom of a glass. If they are too hard, warm the ball in your hand and hand-smoosh. Smooth out the edges if they crack (crack less if not too chilled).
Chill again, about 20 minutes.
Melt any kind of chocolate that you like (I used semi-sweet chocolate chips) in a double boiler over hot water. Dip the patties in the chocolate and set aside to harden.
