Not only do I love the flavor of this peppermint oatmeal cookie but I love the texture. The chewiness of the oatmeal cookie is great but is made so much better when it is dipped in white chocolate and sprinkled with crushed candy cane. Chewy and crunchy!

Delicious! I don’t think these are going to last until Christmas! Thanks for sharing!
Robyn Neville says
I made these today – yummy! One question – they were not as thick as yours show, any tips? Still quite tasty and very pretty!
Leigh Anne says
If they were a bit thinner they may have needed a bit more flour. Everyone measures flour differently. I scoop and then level with a knife!
Sadie Whitley says
Lovely recipe. I wanted to let you know that you need to add the step of adding the egg after the vanilla in your recipe; for those that may not bake as much as we do, might get confusing for them.
I made these this morning and instead of white chocolate, I dipped them in dark chocolate with peppermint and some with coconut. Thank you for sharing the recipe. You’re right, the consistency is delicious.
Leigh Anne says
Thanks Sadie – got it added!
