Another great recipe to try is Peppermint Bark. This sweet and minty treat is made by layering melted chocolate with peppermint extract and crushed candy canes. Once it sets, break it into pieces to enjoy as a decadent holiday dessert or to gift to friends and family.
For a twist on the traditional sugar cookie, consider making Stained Glass Cookies. These cookies are made by cutting a shape out of the center of the cookie and filling it with crushed hard candies before baking.
