Recipe: White Chocolate and Peppermint Creams

Desserts - Candy, Chocolate
WHITE CHOCOLATE AND PEPPERMINT CREAMS

48 (about) small paper or colored foil candy cup
1/2 cup whipping cream
1 pound plus 6 ounces imported white chocolate (I use Merckens) finely chopped
1 c. finely crushed peppermint candies (about 7 ounces) (Be sure they are finely crushed)
1/2 t. peppermint extract
6 ounces semisweet chocolate, chopped (I use Merchens) and I like milk chocolate better

Divide candy cups between 2 cookie sheets and set aside. (I use small candy cups that have a foil lining.)

Bring cream to simmer in heavy medium saucepan. Remove from heat. Add 1 pound white chocolate, whisk until melted and smooth. Whisk in candies and peppermint extract.

Working quickly, spoon mixture into pastry bag fitted with medium round tip.(I use a #10 tip) Pipe mixture into candy cups, filling each 3/4 full. Wet fingertips and press down on candy mixture to smooth tops. Refrigerate until set, about 15 minutes.

Place remaining 6 ounces white chocolate in medium metal bowl set over saucepan of simmering water and stir until melted and smooth. (I melt mine in a small bowl in the microwave.) Remove from over water. Spoon 1/2 tsp. (generous) melted white chocolate atop each of 24 candy cups shake cups gently from side to side to smooth tops. Chill. These freeze really well.

Place semisweet or milk chocolate in metal bowl. Set over saucepan of simmering water and stir until melted and smooth. (I do mine in a samm bowl in the microwave.) Spoon 1/2 tsp. (generous) melted semisweet or milk chocolate over remaining candy cups. Shake cups gently from side to side to smooth tops. Chill. These freeze really well.

After they have set up I pipe a small (102) red rosebud on them with a small green leaf.

Makes about 48
