Peppermint Melt-A-Ways

What a cute and festive cookie these Peppermint Melt-A-Ways make!

I admit I am not a peppermint fan just as a stand-alone candy, but I do love peppermint crushed and added to sweet things!

Here’s what you will need to make these minty cookies:

• 1/2 cup powdered sugar
• 1 cup butter, softened
• 1/2 teaspoon peppermint extract

• 1 1/2 cups powdered sugar
• 2 tablespoons butter, softened
• 1 to 2 tablespoons milk
• 1/2 teaspoon peppermint extract
• 2 to 3 drops red food coloring
• crushed peppermint candy

1. Cream butter, powdered sugar, peppermint extract, and food coloring.
2. Add milk one tablespoon at a time. Drizzle over the Peppermint Melt-A-Ways and then sprinkle with crushed candy.

Peppermint Melt-A-Ways Directions:

1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
2. In a large bowl cream butter, sugar, and extract.
3. Add flour and cornstarch and mix well.
