Junior Mints are the best movie candy EVER*, and now you can make them at home. *YMMV
RMC has an Amazon Storefront! If you see an ingredient or piece of equipment in a video and think you’d find it useful, click on the link and check it out. If you decide to purchase something in the storefront, I’ll receive a small percentage, but it won’t increase your price at all.

INGREDIENTS
3/4 cup (230g) of sweetened condensed milk
2 tablespoons of peppermint flavor
4 cups (500g) of powdered sugar
1.5 cups (270g) of chocolate
SUPPLIES
A mixer
A small scoop
A cutting board
Some parchment
Some precision dipping tools
DIRECTIONS
In a mixing bowl, add the sweetened condensed milk, peppermint extract, and powdered sugar.
Mix until it forms a crumbly dough.
Scoop some of the dough (I used a teaspoon), and form it into a small, rounded disk, similar to an actual Junior Mint.
Continue with the rest of the dough.
Melt the chocolate, then dip a disk into the chocolate, let the excess drain, and place it on the lined cutting board.
Once they’re all dipped, let them rest on the counter until the chocolate has set.
