Happy New Year!!!

I'd meant to post this closer to Christmas but time got in a huge rush and sped on by me. The picture you see above is a picture of the only Christmas Cookies that I managed to make and the recipe is one of simple nature. They have been very popular and I think I will definitely be making them more frequently.

Peppermint Cookie Cups

1 pkg sugar cookie mix
1 stick butter
1 egg
1/2 bottle peppermint extract
Dark Chocolate Hershey Kisses
Red wilton candy melts
crushed candy canes

Mix the sugar cookies with the butter, egg and extract. Put into mini muffin tins and bake according to directions on cookie mix package.

Pull tin out of oven and insert kiss upside down into the cookie. Cool slightly in tins before removing cookie and repeating process as needed. Cool on rack until kiss turns mostly solid again.

Drizzle with melted candy melts and sprinkle with the candy.

Freezes well and stores well... and

totally on the menu!
