Old Fashioned Holiday Buttermints Such a simple treat to make during the holidays and you’ll only need a few ingredients! For an authentic creamy flavor and texture, use a high quality butter like challengebutter in the recipe. You’ll Need: 1/2 cup salted challengebutter, softened 1/2 tsp vanilla extract 1/4-1/2 tsp peppermint extract 4 cups powdered sugar 1 tbsp heavy cream red & green food coloring 1. Place all ingredients besides food coloring into a large mixing bowl and beat on low until smooth- the mixture will be very thick. 3. Take small sections of the dough and roll into balls. Dip a fork into powdered sugar, then flatten each one. Place the patties onto a sheet of parchment paper to dry for 24 hours. Spritz with edible glitter as a finishing touch if you like! #challengebutter #buttermints #vintagebaking #baking #dessert #bake #easyrecipe #candy #christmasbaking #christmas #christmastime #christmasideas
