Peppermint Dipped Chocolate Cookies

I always love doing cookie exchanges at Christmas time and these white chocolate peppermint dipped cookies are always a hit! Whoever tries one asks for the recipe, every. single. time.

Not only are they delicious but they are so pretty to put on a platter!

Stack 5 or 6 cookies and tie some twine around with a bow. Put into a clear bag and put a Christmas tag on it! Lovely gifts these make.

Yum!! The crunch and softness go so well together.
