I have been meaning to try this recipe.

Makes 20 peppermint patties (pareve)

Ingredients:
1 egg white (use pasteurized egg)
4 cups powdered sugar
1/3 cup light corn syrup
1/2 teaspoon peppermint oil or extract
Cornstarch for dusting

Directions:
One 12-ounce bag semisweet chocolate chips
In a medium bowl, beat the egg white until frothy but
not stiff. Don't use a plastic bowl for this.
Slowly add the powdered sugar while blending with an
electric mixer set on medium speed.
Add the corn syrup and peppermint oil or extract and
knead the mixture with your hands until it has the
smooth consistency of dough. Add more powdered sugar
if necessary, until mixture is no longer sticky.
Using a surface and rolling pin heavily dusted with
cornstarch, roll out the peppermint dough until it is
about 1/4 inch thick.
Punch out circles of peppermint dough with a biscuit
cutter or a clean can with a diameter of about 2 1/2
inches. Make approximately 20, place them on plates or
cookie sheets, and let them firm up in the
refrigerator, about 45 minutes.
Melt the chocolate chips in a microwave set on high
for 2 minutes. Stir halfway through the heating time.
Melt thoroughly, but do not overheat.
Drop each patty into the chocolate and coat
completely. Using a large serving fork, or 2 dinner
forks, one in each hand, lift the coated patty from
the chocolate. Gently tap the forks against the bowl
to knock off the excess chocolate, and place each
patty on wax paper.
Chill the peppermint patties until firm, about 30
minutes.
