St. Patrick's Day Mints

Here is one of my favorites:

1 lb - 10x sugar (powdered sugar)

3 tablespoons - hot water

1/4 cup - melted butter

10 drops - peppermint oil

green food coloring



Blend all ingredients together with a fork.

Roll into small balls.

Press onto waxed paper with a fork. (you can make a criss-cross
pattern on the tops)

Let stand 1 hour untill dry and firm.

Enjoy!!!
