These Peppermint Sparkle Sugar Cookies are the cool, minty holiday cookie you’ve been looking for. Just whip up a simple sugar cookie mix, coat in crushed peppermints and white sugar, and bake! One bowl, no chilling, and a special trick to make these peppermint cookies perfectly circular. Perfect for anytime during the holiday season, and the perfect cookie to leave for Santa.
You can use crushed peppermint candies for these peppermint cookies – easily crush round peppermints or candy canes yourself, or buy them pre-crushed (I found crushed peppermint at HomeGoods, but you can also get them on Amazon).
A simple sugar cookie with crushed peppermint candy both in the dough and rolled on the outside, along with sparkly white sugar, these cookies have an awesome crunch, festive color, and refreshing flavor.
