In this week’s Cooking with Christian Music, we have a nifty treat from MIKESCHAIR bassist Jon Haire: Creme de Menthe balls!

Jon Haire’s recipe for
Crème De Menthe Balls
2 boxes 10X sugar
2 sticks butter
1/2 cup chopped pecans
1/2 cup Crème de Menthe
2 pkg. 12 oz. semi-sweet choc. Chips
1/2 – 1 stick of paraffin
Cream sugar with softened butter; add pecans and crème de menthe. Chill the dough for 30 min. to an hour. Roll balls and put on tray. I put them in the freezer until hard-it makes the dipping easier. While you are freezing the balls, melt the chocolate chips and paraffin in the microwave, heating on high one minute at a time, stirring until mixture is blended. Dip balls in the chocolate and chill. (Paperclips work well for the dipping process!).
