Sorry to anyone following my blog, I know this is like the 3rd chocolate cookie in a row. I’m loving the brownie cookie I guess =). Anyone not following and just stopping by, you may also like Chocolate Cookies and Cream Cookies or Marshmallow Brownie Cookies. They all basically start out with the same dough and are topped differently. It is a delicious cookie even on it’s own. I love this holiday version of it! Peppermint and chocolate are divine together! I hope you enjoy this holiday cookie as much as I do!
