      This recipe was just perfect. It made a wonderful christmas gift. I would suggest to not even flatten out the candies and just leave them as balls. It works out either way.

      Easy to make and twice as easy to eat. My daughter gave them the thumbs up, so loves peppermint patties.

      Made these with my kids for our some family guests. Everyone loved them, they were great! We keep them in the freezer and like to eat them while they are still cold.

      Really easy, but messy too! They are just like York.

      Forget buying dry old yorks. These things are addictive. I keep a supply in my freezer and pull them out when I want a sweet. Love the crunch of the cold chocolate! The only problem is that I can't find a way of hiding them in my freezer!

      I thought these were great. Very easy to make and everyone loved them. I put them on my holiday cookie tray and they were the first thing to go. I will be making them again way before next Christmas. Thanks for the treat.

      Very good. These were a big hit in my house. At little messy and time consuming but worth it. I am keeping them in my freezer for when we want them. My 4yo says YUMMY!

      Mmmmmmm!These were fantastic! I really hate the pickiness of dipping cookies in chocolate so I cheated! I brushed one side of the patties with the chocolate, allowed them to harden in fridge, flipped them over and painted the other side!It was a breeze!Thanks for such a different yummy treat. If only I could stop eating them...

      Made 2 different ways, you do NOT need any additional sugar if you slowly add in the sugar. If you however just dump the sugar in (as the recipe kind of suggests) then you need additional sugar. Just a helpful tidibt, otherwise these are SUCH a treat and delicious.

      Lovely - and easy - recipe! I always make my family baskets of homemade candy every Christmas and this was a wonderful addition as those Name Brand peppermint patties are my mom's favorite. I also tried a version with almond extract instead of mint, and some ground almond in the filling which was great. Maybe next year I will try orange extract and some orange zest! Thanks Mirj!

      I can't believe I haven't reviewed these yet. I have been making your recipe for years and we love it! So do all the people on my "goodie tray" lists. I wrap these individually in foil so they don't make the rest of the goodie tray taste like peppermint. :) So yummy! I never buy store bought patties anymore.

      I made this recipe many, many times for Christmas gifts. Found it in Taste of Home. The nice peppermint taste is perfect for an after dinner treat.

      This recipe is soooo good. I only made half the batch and tried the other reviewers suggestion to slowly add the sugar. I found I still had to add more and used about 3 cups for half a batch. I also used peppermint oil instead of extract. I used 1/8 heaping tsp and WOW it was strong, but good! My 8 yo loved it! Thanks for posting.

      Very good, but the amount of powered sugar was wrong, i had to add double.

      These certainly tasted good but I could not get them to look pretty. Maybe I didn't have the right dipping tools or maybe I made them too big. I will try again as they recipe is too yummy to give up on.

      Great taste, sugar amount was off needs more or it will be too runny, I used almost a full 2 lbs. What I did was just keep adding sugar until it was a nice dough consistency it started to taste somewhat sugary so I added just a bit more milk to it and mixed. Next time I do this which will be today or tomorrow I think I will make the balls a little smaller as it was a bit difficult to dip the larger patties. Over all this was a great recipe everyone who tasted them said they tasted just like York patties, just a tad bit better.
