This is a great recipe to make tasty, little snacks for any type of holiday! I learned it in my home ec class and brought it home for Christmas! Enjoy! Ingredients:
0.5 (4 ounce) package cream cheese (room temp!) |
3 3/4 cups powdered sugar |
extract (personal choice) |
food coloring (optional) |
almond bark or chocolate |
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese (room temp!) |
2 lbs powdered sugar |
extract (personal choice) |
food coloring (optional) |
almond bark or chocolate |
Directions:
1. In a bowl, stir together cream cheese with powdered sugar(added gradually). Wooden spoon works best.
2. Form together in a big ball.
3. Knead on a counter (not floured, if needed use a little powdered sugar) for a couple minutes to ensure dough sticks together well.
4. Make a big ball again, indent center, and add extract according to your taste. Knead the extract through and taste test to see if more extract is needed.
5. Do the same with food coloring. (I flavored mine mint and colored them green!).
6. Roll into no bigger than quarter-sized balls and set on a plate. Put into freezer until hard(5-10 minutes?) or you can put them in the fridge for the next day.
7. Dip into melted almond bark or chocolate for fancy, inexpensive candies!
