Instructions: Mix cheese in bowl until soft. Add coloring and flavoring (very slowly - on high humidity days, it will take less); gradually add the sugar. Mix and knead until it is the consistency of pie dough or putty. Roll into balls the size of a marble. Dip balls in granulated sugar and press firmly into a candy mold. Unmold at once onto waxed paper. Once firm, transfer onto a cake rack and let dry for a few hours. They will keep a long time if you store them in an air-tight container.

Makes about 6 dozen mints.
