6 Ingredients
Cream Cheese: This should be softened before using. I don’t recommend using a low-fat cream cheese because it won’t have the same texture.Butter: Be sure to use unsalted butter, also softened.Salt: Just a little bit of kosher salt for flavor. Flavor Extracts: This recipe is using vanilla and peppermint extracts for flavor. You can swap them out for lemon, almond, or other extracts of you prefer.Powdered Sugar: This helps create the right consistency for the cream cheese mints.Food Coloring: You can use any colors you like, or skip food coloring if you want white mints.
If peppermint isn’t your favorite flavor, you can use different extracts. Lemon is a great option, or you can stick with just pure vanilla. For parties, wrap a handful of cream cheese mints in small sachet bags to handout with gift bags, or place around the tables.
