Mint leaves 40

Method

  1. Using a food processor, grind the mint leaves with approximately one quarter of the fondant.
  2. Combine the mint fondant with the remaining fondant. Heat over a water bath to 70°C/160°F.
  3. Adjust the consistency, if necessary, using the brandy, crème de menthe, or water, and add the mint oil or extract if desired. The fondant should be thin enough to flow
