Easy recipe to make your own mints. This has been a favorites of ours the last couple of months. The grocery store had cream cheese on sale 10 for $10.00 and I stocked up on it. You can freeze it. So, I have plenty of it on hand and I always keep a huge stockpile of
powdered sugar for making homemade icing. I let my Little Man make this and he uses molds to make them in different shapes. I used to make homemade candy and chocolates a lot and have hundreds of candy molds.
Basic Mints 1 package of cream cheese
2 pound package of
powdered sugar Knead these together with your hands while adding the flavoring and food coloring. Flavor and color them any way you like them. I use green for the spearmint. You can make them pink for peppermint. And so on. Whichever is your favorite type of mint. Easy , quick, and good. Store these in a nice dry container after they set up.
