peppermint patties!


So, weird story. I don't like or eat candy. Never have. Except for one kind...Junior Mints!! And so sometimes on Sunday's you're sitting at home killing 10 minutes on pinterest and your friend posts a recipe for peppermint pattites (aka really big junior mints!) and so you decide to go wander in the kitchen & make them because why not?!  They were so yum! Here's the recipe! 

Ingredients:
- 2  1/2 cups powdered sugar
- 3 tbs softened butter
- 2 tsp peppermint extract
- 3 tbs cream
- 1 bag chocolate chips (the darker the better)
- 3 tbs extra virgin coconut oil

In a mixing bowl, combine the powdered sugar, butter, peppermint extract, and cream. Beat until the candy comes together and feels like playdough. Add more powdered sugar until it no longer feels sticky. Roll out the dough on a surface of powdered sugar and cut into shapes. Chill/freeze. Melt chocolate and coconut oil together, and dunk the pieces! Store in fridge or freezer!
