Hmmm... I appear to have mislaid the photos for this one. (which is an excuse for it being a day late... It's not the reason, but it's an excuse)
Anyhoo - mint cremes!
You need:
Fondant Icing (the ready made roll out stuff for ease)
Peppermint Essence
Dark Chocolate
Knead the icing until soft and pliable.
Add several drops of mint essence and continue to knead
Roll the icing into a cylinder, about 1 inch in diameter
Taking a very sharp knife, slice circles about 1/3 inch thick
Leave the icing circles to dry out for an hour or so.
Melt the chocolate over a bowl of hot water.
Dip the icing into the chocolate and coat completely (don't leave it in too long. You don't want to melt the fondant!)
Let the mint cremes set completely on a non stick sheet.
You could add colouring and other flavours to the icing.
I made some purple strawberry cremes as well, but they were, quite frankly, disgusting.
But in other news, the strawberry jam was absolutely delicious!!
