Homemade Peppermint Patties

Ingredients
  

  • 2 tbsp. heavy whipping cream
  • 2 tbsp. butter, softened
  • 1 tbsp. light corn syrup
  • 2 tsp. peppermint extract
  • ¼ tsp. vanilla extract
  • 1 tsp. lemon juice
  • 2-¾ cups confectioners sugar
  • Peppermint candies, crushed
  • Chocolate almond bark

Instructions
 

  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the cream, butter, corn syrup, peppermint extract, vanilla extract and lemon juice; mix well using a hand mixer.
  • Mix in one cup of confectioners' sugar at a time until you have a thick dough like texture.
  • Use your hands; roll into a ball; use a rolling pin to roll out the Peppermint filling to be about 3/8- inch thick (doesn't need to be exact but keep it rather thick).
  • Use a small round cookie cutter to cut out shapes; place on a parchment paper lined baking sheet; freeze for an hour or so.
  • Before removing them from the freezer, heat the almond bark in a large microwave safe bowl for 90 seconds; stir; re-heat in 15 second intervals until melted.
  • Use a slotted spoon to lift and dip the peppermint patties into the melted chocolate.
  • Let the excess chocolate drop off; place back on the parchment paper.
  • Immediately top with crushed peppermint and let set for 30 minutes.
