INGREDIENTS

• 3/4 cup condensed milk
• 1 /2 tsp peppermint extract
• 4 cups confectioners sugar
• 3 cups semi sweet chocolate chips
• 2 tsp shortening

DIRECTIONS

1. 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.
   
2. 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. Enjoy!

Notes: Total cook time is around 2/12 hourse because they have to sit at for a while to become room temperature.
