Turn out the dough onto a large piece of plastic wrap and flatten into a disk, then seal. Refrigerate until firm - about 1 hour. Preheat oven to 350 degrees and line two cookie sheets with parchment paper. Working with 1 tbsp of dough at a time, use your fingers to evenly encase each peppermint patty with the dough.
