Today I made Mint Chocolate Patties! Like the New York kind, soft in the middle...you know what I mean. They are even better than the ones in the store, which I didn't know was possible! Not too hard to make, just take a long time. I had to put the batter in the fridge overnight, partly because I started them late last night, so technically they are half made today, half yesterday. But I think it still counts, haha.
The recipe I used was this one:

She says NOT to use peppermint extract, that you NEED peppermint oil...well, they might taste better with oil but they are pretty good with extract. I just used more. Like, 3/4 of a teaspoon approximately. And I didn't have any sweetened condensed milk, so I used cream. I needed a bit more than 2 tablespoons though. About three probably.
Anyhow they turned out nicely, if I do say so myself. Really rich, I can only eat one at a time! haha.
That's all for now, Happy Baking!
