Ingredients
- ½ cup unsalted butter softened
- 4 ounces cream cheese softened
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 1 ½ teaspoons peppermint extract
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 4 cups powdered sugar
- 4 cup chocolate melting wafers
- Sprinkles optional
Instructions
- In a large bowl or stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, cream together the butter, cream cheese, peppermint, extract, vanilla, and salt until smooth.
- Add in the powdered sugar 1 cup at a time mixing until smooth between each addition.
- Cover the mixing bowl and place it in the refrigerator to chill for 1 hour.
- After chilling, use a medium cookie scoop to measure out even balls of the buttercream mixture and place them on the prepared baking pan.
- Refrigerate the balls for 2 additional hours.
- Melt the melting wafers (I usually do this in two rounds to keep the chocolate fresh) in a glass.
- Dip the buttercreams in the chocolate with a spiral dipping tool, toothpick, or fork until fully coated and place back on the baking sheet.
- Add sprinkles after every few you dip because they will begin to harden and won’t stick after a couple of minutes.
- Allow the buttercreams to sit at room temperature for about 15 minutes then transfer back to the refrigerator to chill for an additional 30 minutes to harden.
- Enjoy or store in the refrigerator in an airtight container.
