Cooking Instructions
1.
Add the Sweetened Shredded Coconut (4 cups) to the jug or bowl of your food processor and blend on high for about 5 minutes.
2.
Scrape down the sides, add the Peppermint Oil (2 tsp) and Coconut Oil (4 Tbsp) and continue blending on high for another 10 minutes. You will need to stop, scrape down the sides and continue blending.
3.
Continue blending until you have a coarse paste.
4.
Shape the paste into about 16 balls and place on a lined baking tray or chopping board.
5.
Shape the balls into patties and then refrigerate until sold, around 30 minutes.
6.
Remove the patties from the fridge and begin decorating them. Add a few drops of AmeriColor Flo-Coat™ (to taste) to the White Chocolate (1 cup).
7.
Tint the chocolate with the AmeriColor Soft Gel Paste™ in Turquoise (to taste), AmeriColor Soft Gel Paste™ in Avocado (to taste) and AmeriColor Soft Gel Paste™ in Teal (to taste) until you reach a desired shade of blue.
8.
Working quickly, dip each of the patties in the chocolate and place on a wire rack to set. Repeat so that each pattie is well-coated in chocolate.
9.
You might need to melt the chocolate again, which will allow you to tint half of it a darker shade of blue. Use this to coat dip the patties again to obtain a marble effect.
10.
Melt the chocolate again if need be, and then make it even darker using the AmeriColor Soft Gel Paste™ in Teal (to taste).
11.
Using a fork, quickly splash patties with the darker chocolate.
12.
Finish off decorating the patties by using a clean paintbrush to fleck each one with AmeriColor Soft Gel Paste™ in Bright White (to taste) and gently sprinkle with Edible Glitter (to taste).
13.
Allow to set in the refrigerator for another 30 minute or overnight. Serve and enjoy!
