Butter Cream Cheese Mints image

I have tried various butter mint recipes in my years but this is truly the best one yet. I also like the fact that they freeze well. The recipe came from a former pastor's wife, which was in the church cookbook.

Categories     Candies

Number Of Ingredients 5

4 oz cream cheese, room temperature
2 Tbsp butter (not margarine), rm temp
16 oz powdered sugar
1/4 tsp peppermint extract
1/8 tsp vanilla extract

Steps:

  • 1. In large saucepan, melt cream cheese & butter over low heat, stirring until smooth. Remove from heat.
  • 2. Gradually add in the powdered sugar then the extracts. Stir until well blended. You can add food coloring at this point if so desired.
  • 3. Let dry for a couple of minutes. Spoon into decorator w/ small tip and squirt onto waxed paper. Let set for at least 12 hours (24 hours is better) to dry then transfer in ziplock bags & store in freezer or store in air tight containers or just set out in pretty dishes uncovered.
  • 4. I actually use my Pampered Chef Easy Accent Decorator for this. You can also use a ziplock bag with a corner snipped just a bit and squeeze out in a swirlling motion to make them pretty.
  • 5. This is the consistency. Hope you can tell by the pic, which isn't that good.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my mints turned out really crumbly. I think I might have overmixed the dough.

I love the idea of these mints, but I found that they were a little too soft. I think I'll try chilling the dough for longer next time.

These mints were a little too sweet for my taste, but they were still pretty good. I think I'll try making them again with less sugar next time.
