Nobody knows what the fuck you are talking about.

>>6500576
it's an old fashioned treat

>cream cheese

>mints

>dough

alright now we just wait

That countertop looks awfully familiar.

>>6500576
Fuck you, I know what they're talking about. It's a staple of every holiday table or wedding, or reunion, everyone fucking loves cream cheese mints, you ignoramus.

>>6500556
You should be able to knead the dough by hand just fine, OP. It will surely take longer to produce the smooth, creamy consistency you want, but my grandmother used to make them by hand, so if she could do it, so can you.

In addendum to my previous post, I have to say that those mints look too thick, you should have made them thinner. Other than that though, the colors look right on, and I'm sure they taste like they should. But they should be thinner than that. You've heard the term "wafer thin mint", right? Exactly that.

>>6500646
The recipe i was reading made them a little thick like that, maybe not as thick but it's pretty thick

Explain yourself, OP, you fat whale.

op you are disgusting and obese

Those cookies actually don't look so bad

>>6500625
>>6500694
yeah.. thats me

>>6500750
you're goddamn right i am

also, i tried one, they're still really doughy and taste like powder so if anyone cares, don't kneed this with your hands

>>6500794
and here's a pic

>>6500801
And you used mint extract, sugar cookie dough and food coloring and cream cheese?

>>6500803
it was a recipe i found online:

-1 8oz block of cream cheese
-2lb bag of confectioners sugar
-any abstract that was either peppermint, vanilla, or something else, peppermint was used for me
>food coloring
-granulated sugar to top

it said to keep adding powdered sugar until the cheese wasnt sticky and no matter how much i put in it was still sticky. i think i put in too much powdered sugar so it's weird

>>6500805
that's so subjective. i hate that, no one's gonna judge things the same!

>>6500794
I want to know one thing

Did you really eat it

I just want to say, OP, that ever since I first saw that glorious sundae ramen post, I've dreamed of actually participating in one of your threads.

And now I have my chance.

Thank you, sweet prince.

I've never used a mixer to make cream cheese mints in my life. In fact, the easiest method is to forgo the bowl, put the ingredients in a plastic bag, and mix them that way. It balls in the end anyways, so it works great.

Also, use a small rubber mold to make them pretty. It also helps control the size (smaller is better). I prefer coconut or almond flavoring to mint or peppermint, too.

I know they are old-fashioned, but I'm surprised by the number of people that didn't know these exist. My family will get together and make a bunch for weddings, showers, and other gatherings still. I know even russell stovers used to make commercial ones (not anymore), so they're not out of the ordinary.
