Wedding Mints

1 stick (1/2 cup) butter
1/4 cup whipping cream
2 pounds confectioners' sugar
1/4 teaspoon butter flavoring
1/4 teaspoon peppermint oil or 1 teaspoon peppermint extract

Let butter sit at room temperature until soft.

Heat whipping cream until warm. Mix all ingredients by hand. It will be stiff so you may have to use hands to knead until smooth. Add color as desired and continue to mix by kneading. Press into mint molds to form. Remove from forms. Place on wax paper and let set overnight to dry. Turn over and let other side dry. Store in covered container.

These keep a long time and freeze well.
