- 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 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 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.
Notes
- Substitutions: Use vegan condensed milk and dairy-free chocolate for a vegan-friendly version.
- Flavor Boost: Try adding a drop of vanilla or orange extract for a twist on the classic peppermint flavor.
- Storage Tip: These patties store well in the freezer for up to three months, making them perfect for make-ahead treats.
- Decorating Ideas: Drizzle with white chocolate or sprinkle with crushed candy canes for a festive look.
