Since then, the journal has disappeared and the recipe lost for many years. Recently I discovered it again! So, as never to lose it again, I spread the word of its goodness. Do not let it out of your sight!
PEPPERMINT CREMES
1 egg white
340g icing sugar
peppermint essence
green food colouring
chocolate to dip
Line a baking sheet with baking paper. Whisk the egg white lightly in a bowl until it is throthy but not stiff.
Sift the icing sugar into the bowl, then stir it into the egg white with a wooden spoon until the mixture is stiff.
Knead in the peppermint essence. Put a few drops of green food colouring in and knead until combined. Roll the mixture into small balls and flatten onto the tray with a fork. Leave to set for 24 hours.
Melt chocolate when the peppermints are set and dip them in chocolate. YUM!

hi there,
Deletei have googled some possible substitutes that are vegan friendly:) i have not tried these personally, but they are common substitutes so i hope you have success!
1 egg = 2 Tbsp. water + 1 Tbsp. oil + 2 tsp. baking powder
1 egg = 1 Tbsp. ground flax seed simmered in 3 Tbsp. water
1 egg white = 1 Tbsp. plain agar powder dissolved in 1 Tbsp. water, whipped, chilled, and whipped again
there are more substitutes, but they may alter the flavour. thanks for dropping by the blog, and good luck!
