Old Fashioned Butter Mints

I love to bake. Cookies, cakes, brownies, whatever. So when I found a recipe for old fashioned butter mints on Pinterest, I knew I had to try it. They came out so well, and the recipe was super easy to follow! You can find it here. Since the recipe is already written out, I figured I'd just show you my pictures. :)

I mashed the mints with a small fork to add texture

One note if you do make them: I used 1/4 teaspoon mint extract instead of 1/2 teaspoon peppermint and it came out just right. I think 1/2 a teaspoon might be way too strong. What is your favorite dessert to make? Let me know!
