Instructions
Put all ingredients in a double broiler and heat with hot, not boiling water
Stir constantly for approximately 3 minutes
When Icing sugar is incorporated and mixture is manageable start dropping with small spoon onto wax paper (I used a 1/4 teaspoon measure)
Mints will quickly dry and can be peeled from the wax paper
