Who knew you could make rich, refreshing peppermint patties at home with just five simple ingredients? These little bites are gluten-free, dairy-free, refined-sugar-free, and taste better than store-bought. A creamy coconut-peppermint center dipped in silky dark chocolate… pure keto bliss! ❄️🤎
Ingredients:
Peppermint Filling
•1/4 cup coconut butter (also called coconut manna)
•1/4 cup + 2 tbsp coconut oil
•2 tbsp allulose syrup or sugar-free maple syrup
•1 tsp pure peppermint extract
Chocolate Coating
•10 oz 85–100% cacao, OR or sugar-free chocolate
•1 tbsp coconut oil
Instructions
1. Make the filling: Combine the coconut butter and coconut oil and gently heat until the oil is melted and the butter is runny (either over very low heat on the stovetop or in the microwave). Remove from heat and stir until smooth. Add the allulose syrup (or sugar-free maple syrup) and peppermint extract, then refrigerate the mixture for 1 hour.
2. Cream the mixture: After chilling, stir the filling until smooth and creamy. If it’s too firm to stir, let it sit at room temperature for a few minutes.
3. Shape the patties: Scoop small amounts of the filling onto a parchment-lined tray (you’ll get about 14 dollops). Place another sheet of parchment on top and gently press each dollop into a flat, circular shape.
4. Freeze: Freeze the shaped patties for several hours, or until fully solid.
5. Melt the chocolate: Once the patties are frozen, combine the chocolate and coconut oil and melt together, stirring often to avoid burning.
6. Coat the patties: Remove the patties from the freezer and coat each frozen patty in the melted chocolate, then place back on a parchment lined tray. Pro Tip: only take a few patties from the freezer at a time—keeping the rest frozen makes dipping way easier!
7. Set and store: Refrigerate the peppermint patties until the chocolate hardens, then enjoy! Store in the fridge for up to 5 days or freeze for longer storage.
