Ingredients:

Serving

1 (3 oz) package cream cheese (softened )
1/4 tsp peppermint extract
1/4 tsp butter flavor extract or 1/4 tsp flavoring
3 cups sifted powdered sugar
3 drops food coloring (optional)
sugar (optional)
your favorite frosting (optional)
dipping chocolate (optional)

Directions:

With an electric mixer, combine cream cheese & peppermint extract. Mix in powdered sugar gradually until smooth. Knead in the last of the powdered sugar with hands. Add food coloring if desired & knead until easily rolled into balls.
Roll into 3/4” balls. Then, you can roll in sugar if desired. Or - you can flatten with a juice glass that has a pretty bottom. Or - you can press them into candy molds. You can then leave them as is, or dip them in chocolate or whip up some frosting & pipe some small flowers & leaves onto them. The possibilities are endless.
Cover with paper towels & let dry overnight (obviously, you’ll have to figure something out for covering them if you piped a frosting design of sorts onto them). Store tightly covered in refrigerator until serving, or store in freezer for up to 1 month.
