Butter Cream Mints


Butter Cream Mints

  • ½ cup butter, softened
  • 4 cups powdered sugar
  •  2 T. heavy cream
  • 2-4 drops Spearmint essential oil

Beat butter until it’s creamy. Blend in powdered sugar one cup at a time, adding heavy cream and essential oil with the final cup of sugar. Mix until smooth, using hands if necessary. Transfer mixture to pastry bag fitted with star tip and pipe nickel-sized stars onto wax or parchment paper. Let mints dry in a cool, dry place overnight.


* I did not have a large enough tip this time so they are not as pretty as piped but they sure taste good! Just like ‘Grandma Candy’ - the candy Grandma Goman gave us every time we visited her.
