Making the Chocolate Mint Filling
To make the filling for our chocolate mint Christmas candies, we will need dark chocolate chips, butter, mint extract, and powdered sugar. Begin by melting the dark chocolate chips and butter in a double boiler over low heat, stirring constantly until smooth. Once the chocolate and butter are fully melted and combined, remove from heat and stir in a few drops of mint extract. Be careful not to add too much, as mint extract can be overpowering. Then, gradually mix in powdered sugar until the mixture reaches a smooth, dough-like consistency.
Adding a Festive Touch
To give our chocolate mint filling a festive touch, we can add a few drops of green food coloring to give it a bright green hue. This will not only make our candies look more Christmas-y, but it will also enhance the mint flavor. If desired, you can also add some crushed candy canes to the filling for an extra crunch and burst of mint flavor.
Shaping the Candies
Once the filling is ready, we can shape our chocolate mint candies into small balls or any other shape of your choice. You can also use a cookie cutter to create fun shapes like Christmas trees or snowflakes. Place the shaped candies on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow them to firm up.
Covering in Chocolate
To complete our chocolate mint Christmas candies, we need to cover them in chocolate. Melt some more dark chocolate chips in a double boiler and dip each candy into the melted chocolate, using a fork to fully coat it. Place the coated candies back on the parchment paper and let them set in the refrigerator for another 30 minutes.
Decorating and Serving
To add a final touch, we can decorate our chocolate mint candies with some white chocolate drizzle or sprinkles. Once the chocolate has fully set, our candies are ready to be served and enjoyed. These make great gifts for friends and family or as a homemade addition to a holiday dessert platter.
In conclusion, chocolate mint Christmas candies are a delightful treat that will surely impress your loved ones during the holiday season. With just a few simple ingredients and some creative decorating, you can create a batch of these festive and delicious candies in no time. Give this recipe a try and add a touch of chocolate mint magic to your Christmas celebrations.
