These Betsey made like the plain cream mints and other cream mints.
She rolled out the fondant so that it was about a quarter of an inch in thickness, cut with the little round cutter, then dipped each round in the melted chocolate, with two silver forks, drained off as much chocolate as possible, then placed on waxed paper to dry.
One of the neighbors, hearing of Betsey's candy making lessons, sent over a recipe for "Cocoanut Cakes," and while they were not exactly candy, Betsey tried them and found them to be delicious.
