After reading the review then looking at the recipe I decide to make some changes before attempting. Instead of 1/3 cup powder sugar, I use 1 cup of granulated sugar. Instead of 1 teaspoon of vanilla (I assumed they meant vanilla extract) I added 2 teaspoons.In stead of 1/4 teaspoon of peppermint extract, I used 1/2 teaspoon. I also added 2 eggs- Once the cookies were ready I heated up some store bought frosting poured it over them then some red sugar(red food coloring mixed in granulated sugar) Then placed in the fridge for 3 hours- These cookies were a hit

Not very good at all. They end up dry and crumbly. Tastes like flour and lard (I used butter). Texture was like eating a sand cookie. Didn't taste the peppermint very much. If I hadn't reread the recipe about 5 times, I would have thought I missed an ingredient. I do like the premise though, and it is a pretty looking cooking. I might give it another try with a basic sugar cookie dough next time. I'd give half spoon rating if I could.

Well, don't I wish that I had seen all of the reviews before making this cookie. Like others, I was attracted to how pretty the cookie was and like others, I felt that the cookie was very dry and tasted as though the batter was not thoroughly mixed,even though it was. I was making this cookie so it could be added to my variety of cookies that I distribute to others annually. However, this cookie was only worthy enough for the trash.

This is not a good recipe. It is very doughy and taste like flour. The children did not like them even when I tried powder sugar coating. I am looking for another peppermint cookie recipe.

One of my daughters picked these b/c she thought they were pretty, but I'd have to say that we all agreed they were not very good. Same as other reviewers said....tasted floury and powdered sugar on top did not help. Too bad I wasted 2 sticks of butter on them!
