--------  ------------  --------------------------------
   1      cup           butter
   2      cups          powdered sugar -- sifted
   4      squares       unsweetened chocolate -- melted
   4                    eggs
   1      teaspoon      peppermint extract
   2      teaspoons     vanilla
  18                    vanilla wafers
   1      cup           heavy cream -- whipped
                        maraschino cherries

Cream butter and sugar; blend in melted chocolate.  Add eggs and beat well 
after each egg.  Add flavorings.  Using 18 cupcake/muffin liners, put a 
vanilla wafer in the bottom of each and then fill with chocolate mixture 3/4 
full.  Place a dollop of whipped cream on each and top with a cherry.  Freeze 
in muffin pans to retain shape.  After the creams are frozen, they may be 
stored in plastic bags.  Serve frozen.
