I made these for a fundraiser. Pressed them into small molds and packaged them by the dozen in small clear plastic bags tied with crinkle ribbon. They sold for $1 per bag. I made a double batch that yielded about 100 per recipe. Although it is time consuming because each piece of candy has to be formed individually, they are easy to work with. If the candy is sticky, just continue to add powdered sugar, about 1/4 c. at a time, until it is a workable, non-sticky consistency. Using molds takes no longer than pressing with a fork and gives a more professional look. I used about 3/4 tsp. peppermint extract per batch and that seemed to be about right.
