Directions
- Using a mixer, whip cream cheese, butter, sugar and a pinch of salt (about 3 minutes, high speed).
- Stirring all the time, add an egg, sifted potato flour and regular flour.
- Then add baking powder, soda and mint extract (remember to use mint extract not essence).
- At this stage you can also add food colouring.
- Chop the chocolate into larger and smaller pieces, then add to the mixture.
- Put the mixture in the fridge for about 40 minutes.
- After that time, using e.g. an ice-cream spoon divide the mixture into 10-12 balls.
- Place the prepared balls in the freezer for a minimum of 2 hours, and preferably even 48 hours.
