Recipe Introduction
the secret to making cream cheese lollipops is keeping them very cold once you make them ~ I just baked off regular cheesecake ~ (betty Crocker classic recipe) then scooped with a small scoop and froze on a cookie sheet ~ when they were almost frozen I inserted the sticks and dipped in chocolate ~ I left them in the fridge until the party started
List of Ingredients
Cream Cheese Mints
3 oz. pkg. cream cheese - room temperature
2-1/2 cups confectioners' sugar
4-6 drops of food flavoring - lemon or whatever choice
4-6 drops food color of choice
granulated sugar
Recipe
Mix cream cheese and confectioners' sugar together. Start with 4 drops of flavoring;
and color as desired. Knead until pie dough consistency is achieved. Add confections' sugar to make softer or decrease sugar for a firmer consistency. Take small pinch and roll into a ball in granulated sugar. Press into mold - remove excess and un-mold at once onto wax paper. You could put lollipop sticks in at this time. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
