York Peppermint Patties

Love these! They are just the right amount of sweet when you want something, and aren’t overly minty. I originally got this recipe from Joyful Abode.

Ingredients

• 1 cup Coconut Butter (coconut butter can be easily made by placing coconut shreds in a food processor and processing until they release their oil and become soft and spreadable)
• Peppermint Oil or Extract to taste
• ¼ cup Honey – optional
• 1 cup Dark Chocolate – I just use semi-sweet chips

Directions

Combine the first three Ingredients. Shape into 1½ inch patties with your hands and place on a parchment-covered baking sheet. Refrigerate or freeze until hard. Meanwhile, melt your chocolate however you like to do it. Dip the Patties into the Chocolate, covering thoroughly. Then place back onto the baking sheet.

Refrigerate or freeze until set, then remove from parchment.
