PEPPERMINT PATTIES

I have made these every year as one of many Christmas treats. My family really loves them, it wouldn't be Christmas without them! When you dip, tap the fork on the edge of the pan to shake off excess. Slide the patty onto waxed paper -- you can use the fork to make a little swirl on the top to make it pretty.

Number Of Ingredients 5

¾ cup sweetened condensed milk
1 ½ teaspoons peppermint extract
4 cups confectioners' sugar
3 cups semisweet chocolate chips
2 teaspoons shortening

Steps:

  • In a large mixing bowl, combine condensed milk and peppermint extract. Beat in enough confectioners' sugar, a little at a time, to form a stiff dough that is no longer sticky. Form into 1 inch balls, then place on waxed paper and flatten with fingers to form patties. Let patties dry at room temperature two hours, turning once.
  • In a medium saucepan over low heat, melt chocolate with shortening, stirring often. Remove from heat. Dip patties, one at a time, into chocolate by laying them on the tines of a fork and lowering the fork into the liquid. Let cool on waxed paper until set.

PEPPERMINT PATTIES

These are amazing! Better than York's because the chocolate is so much thicker. The yield is a guess as the recipe is from a friend who made them at Christmas and gave them as gifts. Fortunately, I was one of the recipients. This recipe has been updated to add more details after questions from reviewers. Cooking time is really drying time for the centers.

Time 4h45m

Yield 24 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

14 ounces sweetened condensed milk
1 tablespoon peppermint extract
6 cups powdered sugar
24 -32 ounces semi-sweet chocolate chips
4 -6 tablespoons shortening

Steps:

  • Combine the sweetened condensed milk and peppermint extract.
  • Slowly add the powdered sugar and beat.
  • Knead on a surface sprinkled with more sugar until dough is stiff.
  • (The stiffer the better when it come to the dipping part!) Add more sugar while kneading if the dough is sticky.
  • Roll 1/4 inch thick.
  • Cut into approximately 1 1/4 to 1 1/2 inch circles. If they are much bigger than that they fall apart when you dip them.
  • My girlfriend said she uses a screw-off wine bottle cap!
  • Let the cut patties dry for at least 2 hours on *each* side. They need to be really dry.
  • Melt chocolate & shortening it a double boiler; stirring constantly until smooth. Using 1 Tbls of shortening for every 6 oz. of chocolate. Keep chocolate hot for dipping.
  • Dip patties in melted chocolate. The method my friend has found to work best: she places them on a long 3-tined fork, puts them in the chocolate (it should be no more than 1 1/2 inches deep), flips them over to coat the other side, lifts them out again with the fork underneath the patty, shakes the fork to shake off the excess chocolate & then places the patty on waxed paper to harden.
