Cream Cheese Wedding Mints for One (makes 6 mints)

I love cream cheese mints, and sometimes I get to craving them…but I don’t want to make dozens of them just for fun.  So, I modified our family recipe for cream cheese wedding mints so you can make a small batch for yourself (this makes about 6 of them).  Enjoy!
  • 1/8 of a 3 ounce package of cream cheese, softened
  • 1/8 teaspoon butter, softened
  • 3 tablespoons powdered sugar
  • 1/8 drop peppermint or other flavoring (take a fork tine or toothpick and just add a little drip of your flavoring)
  • any color food coloring paste (optional) (again, use a fork tine or toothpick to add just a little tiny drop)
  1. Using a fork, mix the cream cheese, butter, and powdered sugar. Mix in falvoring of your choice. Color as desired with food coloring, or leave white.
  2. Roll mixture into small balls, and place on waxed paper. Mold with mint molds or just flatten with a fork dipped in white sugar. Let dry on waxed paper.
