mixing bowl

Cooking instruction summary:

In a large mixing bowl, blend all the ingredients together until fully combined. The dough will be very crumbly.Once you pinch a small amount in your hand, roll it until it comes together. You can make any size mints you like. I use about 2 teaspoons of dough, roll it into a ball, then place it on a piece of parchment paper. Flatten each ball with the tines of a fork.Allow the mints to sit for a while to become firm. After about 3 hours I put them in a bowl on my counter and leave them uncovered (until they are completely devoured). I prefer them to get more firm as the days (hours) go by! However, if you like, my grandma prefers to refrigerated them in a covered container after letting them sit for 3 hours. You decide how YOU like them! ENJOY!

Food Joke

A young couple got married. When the wife prepared to bake a ham to celebrate their first Thanksgiving, she carefully cut off each end before placing it in the pan.Her husband asked her why she did that and she replied, "I don`t know - it`s what my mother always did. But I can ask her."She called Mom, who responded, "I always saw your Grandma do it, so I did the same."They decided to check further, so the young woman called Grandma, who explained, "It was the only way I could get it to fit into my pan."
