These Peppermint Sugar Cookies are super easy to make, delicious, and you and your kids will love them.  Save a few to put under your Christmas tree for Santa!

A couple of great things about the holiday season are sugar cookies and peppermint.  Have you ever combined the two?  It is pretty simple when you combine a box of Sugar Cookie mix plus a bag of Andes Peppermint Crunch baking chips.

Simply follow the package directions for making the sugar cookies.  You don’t even have to get your stand mixer dirty.  A bowl, mixing spoon, and a little old-fashioned stirring will do the trick.

Add one bag of peppermint baking chips.

Now these are good as-is….

But doesn’t a little sugar on top make everything better?

Word of caution:  the peppermint aroma is a little strong when you open the oven after baking these.  (It’s great for the sinuses!)
