I had planned to share this post yesterday, but then accidentally spent the entire day knitting my first pair of socks, oops! So bringing you a last minute Christmas cookie addition that couldn’t be easier! My mom’s brownie peppermint cookies.
These are just like peanut butter blossoms (peanut butter cookies with Hershey’s kisses on top) but festive and perfect for the holidays! A staple of our Christmas cookie line up, and one of my mom’s best inventions. Brownie cookies made with boxed brownie mix, topped with peppermint Hershey’s kisses! It’s also fun to use other festive kisses, like Hot Cocoa or Sugar Cookie, so let your creativity run wild!
Try these super easy cookies if you need a last minute cookie recipe for porch gift drop offs (or just for eating on your own). They’re the best!
