White Chocolate Dipped Peppermint Candy Cane Sugar Cookies - a semi-homemade Christmas treat! Break and bake sugar cookies dipped halfway in white chocolate candy melts and topped with crushed candy canes. The easiest Christmas cookie you'll ever make!
Prepare sugar cookies according to package instructions (325° for 10 minutes) and let cool.
While the cookies are cooling, line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
Place the candy canes or peppermints in a zip top bag and use a rolling pin or mallet to crush into fine pieces.
Pour the candy melts into a microwave safe dish and heat for 30 seconds, stir, heat, stir, repeating until smoothly melted.
