Tips:

  • Use fresh peppermint: Fresh peppermint leaves provide the best flavor for this recipe. If you can't find fresh peppermint, you can use dried peppermint, but the flavor will be less intense.
  • Chill the dough before baking: Chilling the dough before baking helps to prevent the cookies from spreading too much. This will result in a thicker, more chewy cookie.
  • Don't overbake the cookies: The cookies are done baking when they are just set around the edges. If you overbake them, they will become dry and crumbly.
  • Let the cookies cool completely before frosting: This will help to prevent the frosting from melting.
  • Use a piping bag to decorate the cookies: A piping bag will help you to create neat and even lines of frosting.

Conclusion:

These peppermint Christmas roll cookies are a delicious and festive treat that are perfect for the holiday season. They are easy to make and can be decorated in a variety of ways. Whether you are making them for a cookie exchange or just to enjoy at home, these cookies are sure to be a hit.
