• Blend your monk fruit sugar to a powdery consistency in a food processor before doing anything else.
• In a small bowl, whip together:
  • the coconut oil (1/2 cup) 
  • the powdered monk fruit sugar (1/2 cup) 
  • and peppermint extract (3 tsp) 
• Mix until creamy. If your coconut oil is too firm you can microwave it for a few seconds to soften. 
• Next, drop, by the heaping teaspoon onto wax paper, and flatten with a knife or the back of a spoon. 
• Freeze the mint patties for 15 minutes.

Adding Chocolate to Mint Patties

• In a small bowl, microwave the coconut oil (1/3 cup) and monk fruit sugar (1 Tbsp) until warm, and then whisk in the cacao powder (1/3 cup). 
• Place a mint patty on a fork and quickly dip the patties into the chocolate mixture. 
• The quick dip will only coat the peppermint patty a little bit. 
• Re-dip each homemade peppermint patty 1-2 more times until you get the coverage you like. Set back on the wax paper. 

This homemade peppermint patty recipe will make 16 patties and will last on the counter in a cool space, or in the refrigerator. You can also freeze in an airtight container for later. 

For those following a keto lifestyle, these homemade peppermint patties are less than 1 net carb per 3 patties.
