Cream Cheese Mints - cooking recipe

Ingredients

2 ounces cream cheese
2 tablespoons butter
1 2/3 cups powdered sugar

Preparation

Take cream cheese & butter out of the fridge about one hour or so before making.
In a small bowl combine cream cheese, butter and flavoring.
Add powdered sugar, kneading like pie dough until no longer sticky. You may need to add more powdered sugar.
Divide into 2 or 3 parts (if you want more than one color) tint each part as desired.
Make into small balls, roll in granulated sugar & press into mold or flatten with a cup. Release immediately.
These freeze well.
