    An easy and delicious chocolate and peppermint cookie that the whole family will love - it's perfect for the holiday season!

    Chocolate and Peppermint Cookie

    Hey y'all! Its Jamie from Love Bakes Good Cakes! I'm back this month with a super simple and delicious Chocolate and Peppermint Cookies recipe. It seems most of bloggyland is transitioning over to all things Winter - so I'm jumping on the bandwagon!

    It's been a heck of a month at the Love Bakes Good Cakes house. Next week, my oldest son will be leaving to go to culinary school. As a mom, you can imagine that I'm a mess of emotions. While I am excited for him, I don't know how well I'm going to handle that drive to the airport. If you happen to have any advice for a momma facing her first kiddo leaving the nest, I'm all ears!

    Holiday Chocolate and Peppermint Cookies

    Before he leaves home, Elijah, wanted to bake some cookies. He's kinda the official cookie baker in our house .... so I'm not sure what I'm going to do after he leaves. I am not particularly fond of making cookies. I had some peppermint baking chips from our last grocery store visit, so he adapted my pudding cookie recipe to make these yummy little treats. I hope y'all enjoy! (These would be great for Christmas alongside Ang's Ornament Sugar Cookies or Chocolate Chip Snowball Cookies.)

    These delicious cookies are perfect to go with a Hot Cocoa Board this holiday season!
