If you read from one blog to the next it’s almost, almost as if each blogger is trying to outdo the next with the extravagance of their brand new favorite holiday cookie. I am not one of those bloggers. Several years ago I saw a cookie recipe on Martha Stewart that required a few simple ingredients: prepared sugar cookie dough, peppermint extract, red food dye, white chocolate and crushed peppermint.

So if you’re in a pinch, try some of these festive holiday treats and nobody will ever know that you were feeling the Christmas crunch.
