Time 45m

Yield 48

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 cup margarine
½ cup white sugar
½ cup confectioners' sugar
1 egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
½ teaspoon peppermint extract
2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
½ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon red food coloring
½ cup peppermint candy canes, crushed
½ cup white sugar for decoration

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, cream together the margarine, white sugar and confectioners' sugar. Beat in the egg, vanilla and peppermint extracts. Combine the flour and salt; stir into the creamed mixture until well blended. Cover or wrap dough and chill for at least one hour.
  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease cookie sheets. Divide dough into halves. Color one half red by mixing in the food color. Roll a small amount of each dough into a 2 inch long worm. Roll them together in a twisted rope and curve the end like a cane. Place onto prepared cookie sheets.
  • Bake for 8 to 10 minutes in the preheated oven. In a small bowl, mix together the crushed candy cane and remaining white sugar. Roll hot cookies in the sugar mixture.

Overall, these cookies were just okay. They weren't bad, but they weren't amazing either.

The cookies didn't spread out very much in the oven, so they ended up being more like thick cookies than thin and crispy ones.

I had a hard time getting the dough to roll out without it sticking to my hands. I ended up having to use a lot of flour.

The cookies were a little dry, but the frosting helped to make them more moist.

I'm not a huge fan of candy cane flavored things, but these cookies were surprisingly good! The peppermint flavor was subtle and not overpowering.

The cookies were easy to make and tasted great! I used a mix of red and white chocolate chips, which made them even more festive.
