Christmas Preparations # 3: Peppermint creams

Interesting when cooking with a toddler.  Recipe called for 450g icing sugar to two lightly whisked egg whites and a few drops of peppermint essence.  Think my eggs were too big as added a shed load more icing sugar to make it dough like and then it still stuck to everything: me, Erin, the rolling pin, the pallet knife, the tray I put the creams on to dry...

Hey ho.

About 10 of the batch of 50 were near presentable.  They were the ones I managed to do once Erin had got bored.  A lesson there - wait until the toddler gets fed up and then you can make food you'd actually be happy for people to eat.
