Peppermint Dreams
- 2/3 cup butter
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 egg
- 1 tsp vanilla
- Pink or red food coloring
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp soda
- 1 3/4 cup flour
- 6 oz. mint chocolate chips or combination of mint chips and semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1/4 c crushed red and white candy cane
- red sprinkles
- Cream butter and sugar, add egg then vanilla and coloring. Sift together dry ingredients and add gradually. Stir in chips. Chill dough for about 30 mins. Lightly form into 1 inch balls, dip in crushed candy cane and sprinkles. Place on greased cookie sheet and bake at 375u0b0 F for 8-10 mins. Cool slightly on tray before putting on cooling rack.
- NOTE: If you cannot find mint flavored chocolate chips, a teaspoon or so of mint flavoring stirred into chocolate chips, then set aside to dry, will make a fair substitute.
