Tinkerbell's Peppermint Drops

Ingredients:

• 12 tablespoons of icing sugar
• 1 egg white
• green food colouring
• peppermint flavouring
• cooking chocolate

1. Add to a bowl the icing sugar, egg white, 4 drops of peppermint flavouring and 12 drops of green food colouring.
2. Mix well and kneed the mixture to form a smooth ball. If the mixture is a little too wet add more icing sugar.
3. Roll the ball into a large sausage and slice into individual sweets. Use your hands to shape the sweets and leave them on a chopping board to dry.
4. Melt the chocolate in a dish in the microwave, it will only need a minute or two. Don't over do it, it just needs enough time to melt.
5. Dip each sweet into the chocolate half way, and leave it on some tinfoil until the chocolate sets.
