Beat egg white and water (not to stiff). Gradually add up to 1 pound
icing sugar /confectionery sugar. Before adding all the sugar put in 3 to
4 drops of peppermint flavoring. Divide mixture into 3 parts. Add
food coloring to only 2 of the mixtures you will end up with 3 colors
(like red, green, and white Christmas colors). Take one of the colored
mixtures and roll in between your hands until about 1/2 " thick (a snake
like appearance). Then take your scissors and cut off 1/2-inch pieces and
let harden repeat with remaining colors. These are so easy to make and
fun for kids. They make great gifts and taste good too.
