Ingredients:

  • 1-2 tbsp cream
  • 1/4 tsp lemon oil
  • food coloring (optional)

Directions:

  1. Prepare a baking sheet by lining it with aluminum foil or waxed paper.
  2. In the large bowl of an electric mixer, beat the cream cheese until smooth and fluffy. Add 1 tablespoon of cream and the lemon oil or extract.
  3. Check the texture of the candy. It should be smooth enough to pipe easily, but quite stiff and able to hold a firm shape. If necessary, add another teaspoon or two of cream, but do not make it too liquidy, or it will take a long time to set up.
  4. If you want different colored rosettes, divide the candy into separate bowls and stir in food coloring as desired.
  5. Fit a piping bag with a large star tip, and fill the piping bag with the cream cheese candy. Pipe small (about 1”) rosettes onto the prepared baking sheet: hold the pastry bag perpendicular to the surface of the sheet, about 1/4” above the surface. Using slow and gentle pressure, squeeze the bag so that the candy starts to emerge. As it comes out, move the bag in a small circle, gradually drawing it up toward you as you make the spiral smaller, so that the candy ends up circling on top of itself. To finish the rosette, stop squeezing the bag and quickly draw the tip up and away from the candy. Repeat with remaining candy, trying to make all of the rosettes approximately the same size.
  6. Allow the rosettes to dry uncovered, 8 hours or overnight. Once they are fairly hard, use a spatula to move them onto a wire drying rack so that the bottoms can dry out. This will take another 6-8 hours, or overnight. Store the rosettes in an airtight plastic container at room temperature or in the refrigerator if it is very warm.
