5 of 10 of my Christmas candy recipes. The ladies at church made these mints for my bridal shower three years ago. They are so creamy and delicious! You may choose to only make a half batch, because this recipe makes a lot! Read more Usually, that's okay, because no one can stay out of them! See less

How to make it
- ***Cook time includes drying time***
- Mix all ingredients, except coloring, until smooth. Add coloring, if desired. Chill at least 1 hour.
