The most delightful homemade peppermint patties! Much better than any store bought variety! No bake, gluten free, and only 4 ingredients!
Ingredients
- 20oz chocolate for melting (can use chocolate chips, almond bark, or any bar of your favorite chocolate)
- 6 1/2 cups powdered sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon pure peppermint extract
- 14oz sweetened condensed milk
Directions
| Step 1 | |
| In a large bowl mix together condensed milk and peppermint extract, and gradually add in powdered sugar until well combined. | |
| Step 2 | |
| Divide dough into 4 sections and roll each section into logs about 1 1/2" wide. Wrap tightly in plastic wrap and freeze for at least 1 hour. | |
| Step 3 | |
| Melt chocolate according to package instructions. Slice logs (one at a time, leaving the rest in the freezer until ready to use) into 1/4" patties. Dip into chocolate and lay on a wax paper lined cookie sheet. Be sure to dip quickly so the patty doesn't get too soft. Store in a sealed container at room temperature or in the freezer. I prefer to eat them straight from the freezer! | |
