Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Peppermint Candy Cane Cookies.
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 350ยฐF (175ยฐC).
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, combine the softened butter, white sugar, beaten eggs, vanilla extract, and peppermint extract. Beat the mixture with an electric mixer until it is smooth and creamy.
Step 3
Gradually mix in the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt until well combined.
Step 4
Shape the dough into 1-inch balls and place them on ungreased baking sheets, leaving some space between each ball.
Step 5
Bake in the preheated oven for 9 to 10 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown.
Step 6
Remove the cookies from the oven and immediately press a white chocolate kiss into the center of each cookie.
Step 7
To prevent the kisses from melting, place the baking sheets in the freezer for about 15 minutes. Once set, remove the cookies from the freezer and repeat the process with the remaining dough.
