Cooking Instructions
- 1
In a mixing bowl, combine the powdered sugar, butter, peppermint extract, and half-and-half. Start with 1/3 cup of half and half. (This will make a stiffer patty, add more if you want a creamier patty) Beat them with a paddle attachment until the mixture comes together.
- 2
Turn the mixer speed higher and beat until the candy comes together and is light and creamy. When you touch it, it should be soft but not at all sticky. It should be very stiff, like Play-Doh.
- 3
Make patties by scooping one tablespoon of candy and flattening into a flat, round disc. Freeze until stiff, about one hour.
- 4
Melt the Melting Chocolate Wafers in the microwave. Melt in 30-second increments, stirring after every 30 seconds to prevent overheating. For hands-free melting, use a mini crock pot.
- 5
Use a fork or dipping tools to dip a patty completely into the melted coating. (I like to drop it in, put the fork under it, flip it upside down, and then flip it again so the fork is on the bottom and bring it up out of the coating. I think the flipping method is easier than pushing the candy down into the chocolate and then fishing it out again.) Let the excess coating drip back into the bowl.
- 6
Set the dipped peppermint patty onto a piece of parchment or waxed paper, and repeat the dipping process with the remaining peppermint patties. If they get too soft to dip, chill them briefly in the refrigerator until they’re firm again.
- 7
Let the patties set at room temperature. The great thing about using Melting Chocolate Wafers is that they always set quickly at room temperature, and always produce a nice shiny coating! If desired, you can trim any uneven edges or “feet” from your candies once they’ve set..

Hamburger Patties Hamburger Patties
I got the spices from my local butcher, who was selling them in limited quantity. Using those spices, I made a hamburger patty. It's super good!If you can get coarsely ground meat from your butcher, it's even more delicious! Be careful not to over-mix or over-cook! When flipping the burgers, be sure not to press down on them! The patties are pretty juicy and the juice will come out. Make sure you use fresh panko. Recipe by Uniikura cookpad.japan -
Shrimp Patties Shrimp Patties
I've always been concerned about packing breaded deep fried shrimp in bentos, since they lose their crispiness and are quite caloric. So, I chopped up some shrimp to make these simple shrimp burger patties.PS: If you make these without the egg binder, it will be easier to form the patties if you mince the onion.Use leftover bread or crusts. I used some leftover baguette this time.I've kept it simple to pack these in bentos, but add plenty of garlic if serving these for dinner!The burgers are also delicious sandwiched between bread. For 4 small burgers. Recipe by putimiko cookpad.japan -
Beef Patties!!! Beef Patties!!!
This recipe is similar to my older mixed ground meat patties recipe, but these are made only with beef and are just as delicious and tender. I grilled them on a grill pan, and they turned out amazing 😋 The BBQ sauce took them to the next level... and of course, the ground beef was top-notch! I can say these are the best beef patties I've ever made. persakiTranslated from Cookpad Greece -
