2/3 cup sweetened condensed milk
1 teaspoon peppermint oil
2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
1 tablespoon coconut oil
Instructions
1. Mix powdered sugar, sweetened condensed milk, and peppermint oil in a bowl until smooth and pliable.
2. Scoop tablespoon-sized portions, roll into balls, and flatten into discs.
3. Place discs on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
4. Microwave chocolate chips and coconut oil in 30-second bursts, stirring until smooth.
5. Dip each disc in melted chocolate using a fork, tap off excess, and place back on parchment.
6. Let set at room temperature or chill for 10 minutes until chocolate firms.
Notes
Use peppermint oil, not extract, for a clean, strong flavor.
If the filling is too sticky to handle, add more powdered sugar a tablespoon at a time.
These patties freeze well—layer with parchment and store in a zip-top bag.
