Chocolate Mint Cream Cheese Buttons

Ingredients

4 oz cream cheese softened
4 1/2 cups powdered sugar
1/2 teaspoon mint extract
several drops of green gel food color
1 cup heavy whipping cream
10 oz semi-sweet chocolate chips

Instructions

  • Combine cream cheese and one cup of powdered sugar in a large bowl and use a stand mixer or hand mixer to combine.
  • Add the extract and gel food color and mix until combined.
  • Gradually add the rest of the powdered sugar and mix until combined, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed. Use your hands to combine the ingredients if your mixer is not up to the task. (I usually end up using my hands because it's faster.)
  • Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Scoop out a teaspoon of the dough and form into a ball using the palm of your hands. Place it on the prepared baking sheet. Repeat with the rest of the dough.
