Peppermint Snowball Cookies + more cookies with candy cane pieces

[heart_this] · Dec 14, 2018 · 6 Comments

These Peppermint Snowball Cookies have candy cane pieces mixed through the dough and on top for a fun candy cane snowball cookie twist. Plus if you have lots of extra candy canes, I have a list of cookies that use candy cane pieces.

I love a good Pecan Snowball Cookie and I love these with a peppermint makeover. Peppermint is one of my favorite flavors this time of year and I can’t resist using my magic peppermint wand on everything. These peppermint snowball cookies are especially easy because they don’t require any chilling. Mix 6 simple ingredients together and bake.

Tonight I made my first green smoothie. I tossed in a few handfuls of spinach, some orange slices and a bit of frozen pineapple in the blender. The result wasn’t too bad and something I could probably drink on a regular basis. No bitter spinach taste came through, but it definitely wasn’t as sweet as my normal fruit smoothies. I’m trying to convince myself that all the nutrients are worth it, but my idea of something green and delicious is these Mint Brownies with Chocolate Ganache….

Mint Oreo Brownies

Mint Oreo Brownies are stuffed with mint Oreos, spread with mint frosting, and topped with more mint Oreo’s and a fudge drizzle. Mint Oreo brownies stuffed with mint oreos

What are your thoughts on special flavors of Oreos? Yay or Nay? I love trying them and there are some I love, hello lemon and cookie butter. And some I never want to taste again, goodbye apple pie and birthday cake. I’ve seen most of these flavors come and go, but mint Oreos must be a perennial favorite because you can always find them in the store. Thankfully, because I like them better than regular Oroes. …

My son, Cameron, just had to have his blood drawn twice in the past week. Since he is only two, I was nervous how it would go and a bit sad to take him. Thankfully, my sister was able to come with me when he had it done the first time. We were both bracing ourselves for a lot of crying. But, when we got there, he proudly climbed up on the chair, held out his arm and didn’t flinch or cry when they poked him.

No Churn Mint Chocolate chip ice cream. This easy homemade ice cream takes just 5 ingredients and 10 minutes of hands-on time. It's a perfect summer ice cream treat or for any time of the year for that matter.

I don’t know if I’ve mentioned it before, but ice cream is my favorite dessert any time of the year. I enjoy baked treats too, but there is nothing quite as satisfying as a bowl of ice cream. And I’m not picky about the flavor either. I love anything chocolate, caramel, peanut butter, but fruit flavors like strawberry and raspberry are good too. …

So I meant to post these recipes before Christmas, but I decided time with my family and friends was more important than writing about cookies, so I’m sharing these treats with you now. And the timing may be perfect, because while treats abound in December, who doesn’t need some baking inspiration in January , especially soft chocolately, minty, warm-from-the-oven inspiration.

Mint lemonade has been a treat in my family since my brother and I discovered it a few years ago. Mint is easy to grow and was always in abundance and after a hot, sweaty afternoon working in the garden, nothing sounded better. We would grab some mint and mix it up with some powdered lemonade and sip our treat. Since then, the recipe has improved and now features fresh lemon juice and better techniques.
