Peppermint Filled Sugar Cookies

Yesterday we shared Marianne's famous sugar cookie recipe, and included the way she normally decorates them with sanding sugars.  Over Thanksgiving we got fancy while baking some cookies and tried a new technique.  The result was amazing.  Kait took step by step pictures on her phone, but has since gotten a new phone, and the old phone is keeping them hostage.  We have one picture to offer you for now, but will update you with the step by step ones after she gets them off!  If you are looking for a new and easy way to decorate your sugar cookies, we suggest you give this a try.







Ingredients:

Directions:
  1. Roll prepared dough out and cut with a large cookie cutter
  2. Use a smaller cookie cutter in the same shape and cut out the middle of each cookie
  3. Place on a foil or parchment paper lined baking sheet
  4. Fill the "hole" in each cookie with crushed up candy canes
  5. Bake as directed
  6. Let cookies cool for about 5 minutes on the sheet and then transfer to wire baking racks to finish cooling


What are you baking today?  Mari & Kait
