These homemade Vegan Peppermint Patties are sweet and rich. They are firm with a dark chocolate coating and a peppermint center that melts in your mouth.

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.
