-
100 Candies
ingredients
- 8 ounces cream cheese
- 2 tablespoons half-and-half
- 1⁄4 cup butter
- 1 teaspoon flavoring (Strawberry is my favorite, but Creme de Menthe is equally delicious.)
- food coloring
- 5 cups powdered sugar
directions
- Combine cream cheese, half and half, and butter in heavy saucepan.
- Stir over low heat until creamy and butter has melted.
- Add in food coloring and flavoring.
- You can divide the batter into different colors and flavors.
- Add around 5 cups of powdered sugar until the batter is stiff.
- Refridgerate batter well.
- Form into small balls with your hands and roll in sugar for a nice finish.
- The sugar will also allow the balls to be near each other and not get"too attached".
