Oooh wow. These cookies are AMAZING! I am so glad I decided to try them out. They are a perfect holiday cookie! And I love that they didn't call for anything out of the ordinary with the exception of the candy cane kisses. I also used mini chocolate chips instead of regular, I'm not sure if that's makes a ton of difference or not.
There was some debate in this home on when to put the candy cane kiss on the cookie. I didn't want it all melted, but my sweet man tried one that had melted and insisted that was the way to do it. He fell in love immediately soooo I'm torn. Try it out at different stages and see what you like the best!
^^Some of them are melted more than others. What do you think?
