Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350°F. Spread out the flour onto a sheet tray.
1 & ½ cups all-purpose flour
Place it in the oven for 5-7 minutes, until the flour reaches 160°F, this will ensure you kill any possible bacteria.
Place the sheet tray on a wire rack to cool completely, add the salt and mix it in, set aside.

Notes

Start with less peppermint extract and add more to taste – different brands can vary in strength.
Use room temperature butter for easier mixing.
If the dough feels too dry, add a little bit more milk until it reaches your desired consistency.
For an extra festive look, roll the dough into small balls and coat them in crushed peppermint.
Serve it as a dessert spread with graham crackers or fruit slices.
For a fun twist, try mixing in different extracts like almond or coconut.
