Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350o F. Generously coat a mini-muffin pan with cooking spray; set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl beat butter on medium to high speed 30 seconds. Gradually beat in 1-1/2 cups of confectioners' sugar, baking powder and salt. Beat in peppermint extract, vanilla and egg. Beat in as much of the flour as you can with the mixer. Using a spoon, stir in any remaining flour and candies.
- Place remaining 3/4 cup confectioners' sugar in a shallow dish. Shape the dough into 1" balls; roll in confectioners' sugar. Press each ball into bottom and up sides of prepared muffin cups.
- Place cherry, stem side up, in each cup (cherry will not fill cup). Bake about 12 minutes or until pastry is slightly browned. Sprinkle with coarse sugar. Cool 10 minutes in pan.
- Using a small, sharp knife, loosen tassies from cups. Transfer to wire rack. Cool completely. Makes about 48 tassies.
