Directions
Peppermint Snowballs, Great for Christmas Bake Exchanges! From Parents Magazine December 2003 , I made these as written except at 350 for 12 minutes 4 candy canes looked like about the right amount Did not get to putting in sugar when really hot – maybe 10 minutes Probably could roll in powdered sugar again now that they are cold I thought they would need extra peppermint extract but I didn’t have any and they turned out great Made 60 cookies Half a cookie scoop size , Very festive and pretty! I added 1/2 tsp of peppermint extract as some reviewers suggested Rolling hot cookies in the sugar does create a pretty glaze I’ve also dusted the cooled cookies with extra powdere sugar
