| Servings: Makes: 4-6 dozen mints |
| Comments: You can shape or mold these little cream cheese mints any way you like. Try making them in a candy or mint mold. Purchase molds through candy supply stores. |
Ingredients:  3 ounces cream cheese, softened 1/2 tsp. mint extract Food coloring may be added to color 2 to 2 1/2 cups Powdered sugar Granulated sugar |
| Instructions: Blend all ingredients except powdered sugar. Gradually add 2 to 2 1/2 cups of powdered sugar. Knead until no longer sticky. I put it in a plastic food storage bag so it doesn't dry out, keep it in the bag while doing the next step--refrigerate if it starts to get sticky again . Form into small balls (marble size) and roll in granulated sugar. Set on waxed paper sprinkled with granulated sugar. Flatten (crisscross pattern) with a fork. Let dry and store covered in refrigerator. Note: I doubled the recipe but it was really a long process to do at one time. |
