- Split the dough in half.
- Return half of the dough back to the mixer and add in the peppermint extract and a small dot of green food color gel. Mix well.
- Wrap each disc of dough in plastic separately and chill for half an hour.
- Roll each dough into long rectangles. Keep them the same size and about 6 inches wide by about 18 inches long. Roughly.
- Stack the doughs together and then roll. I use a bench scraper to help lift the dough.
