   You should be able to pinch off a piece of dough and roll it into a ball that holds its shape. If the dough is too soft or sticky, add more powdered sugar at a time until the desired consistency is reached. If the dough is too dry or crumbly, add water at a time to adjust the texture.

   Sprinkle powdered sugar over a piece of parchment paper. Place the peppermint dough on the parchment and sprinkle more powdered sugar over the top. Roll into a 1.25 cm thick circle.

   Coat a cookie cutter (2.5-3.8 cm) with cooking spray and use it to cut out circles from the dough. If the dough does not cut easily, place it in the freezer for few minutes to firm up, then try again.
