Peppermint creams are dead easy. I made some the other week and we are still wading thruogh them!

1/2 an egg white
1 tsp lemon juice
few drops of peppermint essence
1/2 lb sieved icing sugar.

beat egg white and lemon juice in a basin till just frothy. Add essence and gradually add icing sugar. Mix to a soft pliable consistency and roll to 1/4 inch thick (use icing sugar to prevent sticking). Dust with icing sugar and cut into one inch rounds. Leave to harden.

Come to think of it, we are still wading through them because I couldn't be bothered to use half an egg white and so doubled the ingredients!

Try these:

Uncooked Choc Fudge (makes 20 pieces)

Break 225g milk choc into small pieces and put into bowl with 100g unsalted butter.
Place bowl over a pan of hot water and heat gently until melted.
In a sep bowl, beat 1 egg then gradually add 450g icing sugar, 160g sweetened condensed milk and finally the choc mixture.
Beat well and put into a light buttered 27.5cm x 17.5cm tin.
Chill in the fridge fir 3 hours or once firm and then cut into squares.
You could also add nut, dried fruit or orange rind as well.

Cognac Truffles (makes 20)

Place 150g dark choc, chopped into pieces, in a medium bowl.
Combine 50g butter and 1/4 cup of cream in a small pan and Stir over a low heat until the butter melts. Bring to the boil and then reomve from the heat.
Pout the butter mixture over the chocolate and stir until the choc is fully melted. Stir in 1 tablespoon of brandy.
Chill the mixture in the fridge stirring occasionally.
When mixture is firm enough to handle, roll heaped teaspoon amts into balls and place on a foil lined tray. Put in the fridge to chill.
Sift 1/3 cup of dark cocoa powder onto some greaseproof paper and roll each truffle through it. Serve in either small confectionary cases or petit four paper cases.
