Peppermint Meltaway Cookies Recipe – I love this time of year and all the delicious treats you can make for your holiday! And peppermint is one of the ultimate flavors for Christmas and there are endless options for what you should make with it.
Especially as we are near the holidays, there is always a serious abundance of desserts sitting around. Nevertheless, goodbye to self-control and time to indulge a little.
You should immediately understand why these are labeled “meltaway” cookies after one little taste. In your mouth, they literally melt. Their texture is dreamy, and there’s really no other kind of cookie.
And they’ve got the most delicious, peppermint buttery flavor. And as if those things weren’t enough, a sweet, delicious frosting of peppermint and tiny bits of crushed peppermint finishes them off. This is a cookie that you’ll dream about.
