Peppermint Creams

by Adele

While I was relaxing in Norfolk, I caught an episode of Lorraine Pascale's Home Cooking Made Easy on TV. As soon as I saw her make these Peppermint Creams, I knew I had to try making them!

Instead of using egg whites, the recipe contains condensed milk (a blast from the 70s!), which is mixed with icing sugar & peppermint extract to make a fondant - it's soooo simple...this is definitely one to try yourselves!
You can choose whether to coat them in dark chocolate - I opted for the half dipped effect.





 

OMG! They are soooo moorish. I'm just tucking into them with the Cappucino I made, whilst I write this post - not sure if they're going to last til Ian gets home from work!!

So what do you think...gonna give them a try?

Today I'm spending the day with my Mum shopping in Nottingham, so I'll get back to all your blogs when I return.



Please help to make my blog onto the shortlist of the Cosmopolitan UK Blog Awards 2012 for 

Best Lifestyle Blog
Thanks so much for your support

Have a yummy Wednesday Lovelies

This looks amazing! Delicious :)

Bravoe Runway said...

YES! I will certainly be trying this out! This looks delicious and everything you make always makes me salivate...

Kay Holmes said...

The peppermint creams reminded me of the checker-patterned cookies I saw on another blog. It was also of the same color and texture and was also good as a combination with mocha or hot chocolate drinks. It's also interesting to try out the peppermint creams, mostly because it's peppermint.

kakuidori said...

omg, i neeeeeed to try these!

Fashionistable said...

OMG they look so moreish too. Yummy I need something sweet now. Xxxx
