Homemade Peppermint Patties Five (Print-Friendly Format)
Minty patties with chocolate coating and only five simple ingredients for a homemade sweet delight.
# Ingredients You’ll Need:
01 -
180 ml sweetened condensed milk
02 -
6 ml peppermint extract
03 -
0.6 ml vanilla extract
04 -
480 g powdered sugar
05 -
340 g dark melting chocolate
# How to Make It:
01 -
In the bowl of a stand mixer, combine the sweetened condensed milk, peppermint extract, and vanilla extract. Beat on low until fully incorporated.
02 -
Gradually add half of the powdered sugar, mixing until a thick dough begins to form.
03 -
Transfer the dough onto parchment paper. Knead gently and roll into a circle approximately 1.3 cm thick, dusting with additional powdered sugar to prevent sticking.
04 -
Using a round cookie cutter, cut out discs from the dough. Arrange on a parchment-lined baking sheet and freeze for 15 minutes to firm.
05 -
Place the dark chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl and heat in 30-second intervals, stirring between, until fully melted. Allow to cool slightly.
06 -
Dip each chilled peppermint patty into the melted chocolate, ensuring an even coating. Place coated patties back onto the parchment-lined tray.
07 -
Refrigerate the chocolate-coated patties for approximately 20 minutes or until the chocolate is set and firm.
# Extra Tips:
01 -
For added flair, decorate uncoated patties with sprinkles or crushed candy before dipping in chocolate.
