If you're a fan of cool, minty, and chocolatey treats, you're in for a delightful experience with our Homemade Peppermint Patty recipe. These refreshing confections are incredibly easy to make and offer a burst of minty freshness in every bite.
In a mixing bowl, combine the powdered sugar, softened butter, peppermint extract, and corn syrup. Start with 1 tablespoon of water and mix everything together until you have a soft, pliable dough. If it's too dry, add a bit more water, a teaspoon at a time.
Roll the peppermint dough into a log, about 1-inch in diameter. Then, slice it into individual patties, around 1/4-inch thick. Place them on a parchment paper-lined tray and freeze for about 30 minutes.
Using a fork or dipping tool, submerge each frozen peppermint patty into the melted chocolate, ensuring it's fully coated. Shake off any excess chocolate and place the coated patty back onto the parchment paper.
