These Vegan Peppermint Patties are SO good that it's hard to put them down! I've been vegan for over 20 years, so it's been a really long time since I've had store-bought peppermint patties.

From what I remember, I think these taste better than the originals. Yes, they are that good.

They are pretty easy to make, with minimal ingredients.
