Ingredients

  • 4 oz cream cheese softened
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons butter softened
  • 4 cups powdered sugar + additional
  • 1/4 teaspoon mint extract
  • food dye optional

Instructions

  1. Beat cream cheese and butter until smooth. Add powered sugar slowly on low and mix until well combined. Add extract and beat just until incorporated.
  2. Place mixture on work surface sprinkled generously with additional powdered sugar. Knead until less sticking and ball is formed.
  3. Press down in center of dough and add a few drops of food dye. Gently knead until dough is fully tinted.
  4. If using a unicorn silicone mold, press small amount of dough into mold cavities until fully covered. Otherwise, make small balls with dough, about the size of a large marble and place on a lined baking sheet. Flatten each ball lightly with a fork.

  5. Let stand 2 hours at room temperature or until fully dry before removing from mold or baking sheet.
