butter cream cheese mints
(4 ratings)
I have tried various butter mint recipes in my years but this is truly the best one yet. I also like the fact that they freeze well. The recipe came from a former pastor's wife, which was in the church cookbook.

4I actually use my Pampered Chef Easy Accent Decorator for this. You can also use a ziplock bag with a corner snipped just a bit and squeeze out in a swirlling motion to make them pretty.
