Many moons ago (close to 4 years to be exact), I made some tasty cookies for a friend of mine. I'm pretty sure we demolished them in one sitting. Bethany, correct me if I'm wrong!
Here are the Chocolate Peppermint Cookies I brought to Bethany's house!
Ingredients:
1 box Devil's Food Cake Mix
2 eggs
1/4 c oil
peppermint extract
powdered sugar
milk
crushed candy canes
Mix the cake mix, 2 eggs, & 1/4 c oil. Add in peppermint extract to preference. Roll the dough into small balls and bake on ungreased cookie sheet at 350 degrees for 7-9 minutes (or until done).
For the frosting, use approx 2 cups powdered sugar, 1-2 T milk, a splash of peppermint extract, and crushed candy canes (to taste). If you want the frosting to set better, use 1-2 T melted butter instead of milk. The thicker the frosting, the easier it will be to frost the cookies.
My goal is to make these cookies again soon. When I do, I'll make sure to take photos and upload them here! Let me know how you liked them!
I seriously just backtracked through the two years of your blog to find this recipe. I just love you! And it was fun to see how the subject matter has shifted over the years. Keep it up, lovely Lady!
