Instructions
- Prep the Tray:
Line a baking sheet with parchment or wax paper and set it aside. Clear space in your freezer for the tray. - Mix the Dough:
In a large bowl, combine the sweetened condensed milk and peppermint extract. Slowly mix in the confectioners sugar using an electric mixer until a stiff, non-sticky dough forms. - Shape the Patties:
Roll the dough into small balls, place them on the tray, and gently flatten each into a thick disc. Freeze for 1 hour. - Melt the Chocolate:
Melt the almond bark in the microwave, heating in 30-second intervals and stirring until smooth. - Dip and Decorate:
Dip each patty in the melted chocolate, shake off the excess, and place it back on the lined tray. Add sprinkles if desired. - Set and Serve:
Let the chocolate fully set at room temperature or in the refrigerator. Store in an airtight container.
