Peppermint Patty Liqueur Recipes

Steps:

• Make cocoa mix as directed on package, using water instead of milk. In small bowl, stir together crème de cacao, schnapps and cognac; stir into hot cocoa.
• Pour mixture evenly into 4 Irish coffee glasses. Top with whipped cream and chocolate shavings.

Steps:

• To start preparing the peppermint patty martini, grab a cocktail shaker and add in one cup of ice cubes or crushed ice. Next, pour 30 ml of vodka, 30 ml of white crème de menthe, 30 ml of dark crème de cacao and 60 ml of half-and-half into the cocktail shaker loaded with ice. Now, screw the lid of the cocktail shaker on tightly, to prevent the drink from splashing out, and give it a couple of vigorous shakes, in order to make sure all the ingredients have blended together thoroughly. Then, hold a strainer over the martini glasses, and pour the peppermint patty martini into these - make sure no shards of ice make their way into your martini. As a final touch, garnish the glasses by hanging mini candy canes from the rims. Serve straight up and chilled.

Steps:

• Place liquor in a "rocks" glass and fill it up with ice.
• Serve!

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine the first 4 ingredients. Add milk and mix well. Roll into 1-in. balls and place on a waxed paper-lined baking sheet. Flatten with a glass to 1/4-in. thickness. Cover and freeze for 30 minutes. , Microwave chocolate chips and shortening on high until melted; stir until smooth. Dip patties, allowing excess to drip off. Place on waxed paper; let stand until set.

Steps:

• In a large mixing bowl, combine condensed milk and peppermint extract. Beat in enough confectioners' sugar, a little at a time, to form a stiff dough that is no longer sticky. Form into 1 inch balls, then place on waxed paper and flatten with fingers to form patties. Let patties dry at room temperature two hours, turning once.
• In a medium saucepan over low heat, melt chocolate with shortening, stirring often. Remove from heat. Dip patties, one at a time, into chocolate by laying them on the tines of a fork and lowering the fork into the liquid. Let cool on waxed paper until set.

Steps:

• Combine the sweetened condensed milk and peppermint extract.
• Slowly add the powdered sugar and beat.
• Knead on a surface sprinkled with more sugar until dough is stiff.
• (The stiffer the better when it come to the dipping part!) Add more sugar while kneading if the dough is sticky.
• Roll 1/4 inch thick.
• Cut into approximately 1 1/4 to 1 1/2 inch circles. If they are much bigger than that they fall apart when you dip them.
• My girlfriend said she uses a screw-off wine bottle cap!
• Let the cut patties dry for at least 2 hours on *each* side. They need to be really dry.
• Melt chocolate & shortening it a double boiler; stirring constantly until smooth. Using 1 Tbls of shortening for every 6 oz. of chocolate. Keep chocolate hot for dipping.
• Dip patties in melted chocolate. The method my friend has found to work best: she places them on a long 3-tined fork, puts them in the chocolate (it should be no more than 1 1/2 inches deep), flips them over to coat the other side, lifts them out again with the fork underneath the patty, shakes the fork to shake off the excess chocolate & then places the patty on waxed paper to harden.
