~~~~Peppermint Patties~~~~~
Mint Filling:
2oz cream cheese, softened
1-2 droppers of liquid NuStevia (The liquid is just my preference. You could use stevia powder, or Truvia for a granulated sugar texture)
few drops of peppermint oil (I used essential oil, I suppose candy flavoring would work too.)
1T coconut oil, melted
Warm water, as needed
Mix well, first 3 ingredients in a small bowl. Add melted coconut oil and stir to combine. Stir in warm water if you are having trouble mixing everything together. Taste to make sure the peppermint flavor overpowers the cream cheese flavor, but is not too strong. We aren't making "Sinus Clearing Patties"
Form desired amount of disks (I made 6) and place on wax paper in the freezer. Freeze until hard.
Chocolate:
1 batch of Skinny Chocolate, cooled, but still liquid.
Remove frozen disks and dip in Skinny Chocolate (using 2 forks). If the disks are frozen enough, the chocolate will harden nearly on contact. Dip disks in chocolate 3-4 times to make the coating thick enough. Place disks back on wax paper and pop in freezer, or enjoy one now.
Alternately, you could pour some Skinny Chocolate into a cupcake paper (in a muffin tin for shape), drop in a peppermint disk, and top with more skinny chocolate.
Hope you enjoy!
Wow! Yummy! I so love Peppermint Patties :-)
