Instructions
Prepare the Filling: In a mixing bowl, combine powdered sugar, butter, heavy cream, peppermint extract, and vanilla extract. Mix until smooth and the dough holds together.
Shape the Patties: Roll the dough into small balls (about 1 inch in diameter) and flatten them gently with your hands to form patties. Place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Freeze for 20-30 minutes until firm.
Melt the Chocolate: While the patties freeze, melt the chocolate chips and vegetable oil in a double boiler or microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring between each until smooth.
Coat the Patties: Dip each frozen peppermint patty into the melted chocolate, ensuring it's fully coated. Allow excess chocolate to drip off before placing them back on the parchment-lined sheet.
Set the Chocolate: Let the patties sit at room temperature or refrigerate them for 10-15 minutes until the chocolate hardens.
