Today I made Cream Cheese Mints for the first time. I recently bought some Cotton Candy Flavored Oil from LorAnn and wanted to give it a try. Their site had a Mint Recipe so that's what I used. I was disappointed because the oil actually smelled more fruity, not like cotton candy at all. I wondered if maybe the labels got mixed up? So, what I ended up with was more like Tutti Frutti Mints! I bought a rose candy mold and thought it would make pretty mints! The recipe is so easy, but I did have one issue with it - no, actually 2! (I hope LorAnn doesn't read this post! LOL!) The recipe said to use between 4 - 41/2 cups of powdered sugar. I used 4 cups and the mixture was so dry and crumbly that at that point I wasn't able to do anything with it. Having not made mints before, I wasn't sure what to do. I finally decided to add another ounce of cream cheese to the mixture, and that worked! My second issue with the recipe was that it said to use 5-6 drops of oil. I used that amount and couldn't taste much flavor - no Cotton Candy, no Tutti Frutti. After using 15 drops, there was a little more flavor. Now, I have to say that the recipe is for Peppermint Flavored Mints and I'm sure that the mint is a stronger flavor. I had no problem at all in forming the mints (after adding the additional cream cheese.) I just used my measuring spoon - teaspoon size - to measure out the "dough." Next, I formed the dough into balls and dropped them in my pretty sanding sugar. Then I pressed the balls into my rose mold. They actually came out quite easy. After I filled my mold I just turned it upside down and tapped it on the counter and the mints came right out! Sparkling Cotton Candy Mints (recipe adapted from here) 4 ounces cream cheese, softened 15 drops LorAnn Cotton Candy Oil pink food coloring 4 cups powdered sugar sanding sugar With an electric mixer, beat the cream cheese until soft, about one minute. Add the flavoring and food coloring and mix until blended. Mix in the powdered sugar 1/2 cup at a time until mixture is no longer sticky. Form into small balls using 1/2 teaspoon of mixture for each. Roll in sanding sugar and flatten with tines of a fork or press into a mint mold. Store Finished mints in airtight container in the refrigerator. There are LOTS of Cream Cheese Mint recipes on Pinterest. Some use 2 kinds of sugar and some use a bit of butter. There are butter mints recipes too!

If you're a cotton candy lover like me, you've probably discovered how difficult it is to find a really good tasting cotton candy flavoring. I've tried several different brands as in this post and this post. One didn't smell like cotton candy at all and the other, which I loved, is now discontinued! That said, today I made cotton candy meringues using Cotton Candy Pink Vanilla Sugar, and whipped cream filling using Bickford Cotton Candy Flavoring. I was hoping that the actual cotton candy sugar would impart that yummy fairground flavor, but alas, the meringues basically tasted like I had used plain sugar. (They did, however, have a pretty pink color!) Sooo.... I googled Cotton candy flavoring and noticed a brand that I hadn't tried - Bickford. I ordered that, and used it in my whipped cream filling. I really liked it, BUT....(LOL) it still doesn't taste like the real thing to me. It's more like cherry vanilla. Before I began, I whizzed some of the cotton candy sugar in the food processor. I just wanted to be sure that it would melt quickly. I ended up with sugar that was very fine, but not quite powdered. The meringues baked up beautifully! I was lucky to have any left by the time I made the filling because my daughter mini pink kept eating them!! You can't blame her though...wouldn't pretty pink bite sized meringues sandwiched with cotton candy whipped cream be a huge temptation to any child?! Just saying..... PINK VANILLA COTTON CANDY MERINGUES INGREDIENTS: 3 egg whites 1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar pinch of table salt (1/8 teaspoon or less) 1 cup powdered sugar or powdered vanilla pink flossugar, divided drop of pink food gel (if) you don't use vanilla pink flossugar Wilton Spring Nonparils 1 cup heavy cream or whipping cream remaining 1/4 cup powdered sugar or powdered vanilla pink flossugar 1/2 teaspoon cotton candy flavoring drop of pink food color (if) you don't use vanilla pink flossugar DIRECTIONS: Preheat oven to 200 degreesF. Whizz 1 cup vanilla pink flossugar in a food processor until very fine. In a mixing bowl with a wire whisk attachment, beat egg whites until frothy. Add cream of tartar and salt and beat until you get soft peaks. Slowly add the sugar and beat until you get stiff peaks. Place mixture into a piping bag (I use disposable bags) with a star tip (I used Ateco 848 tip) Pipe shapes onto a parchment lined baking sheet and bake for 2 hours, or until meringues become crisp. For the whipped cream, into a chilled bowl with chilled beaters, Beat cream, sugar, cotton candy flavoring, (and food gel if not using flossugar), until you get firm peaks. Place filling into a piping bag fitted with any tip (I used a small star tip) and pipe filling on half the meringues. Sandwich with the remaining halves and serve immediately. The number of meringues you get depends on how big you pipe them. I got around 60 meringues, which is 30 meringue sandwiches. or....you can do what I do and sample one!! Now I'm gonna make myself and mini pink a cup of Earl Grey, sit back and enjoy a couple of these beautiful meringues!! Wish you were here!! xo!
