Peppermint Crunch Cocoa Krispie Treats

Cocoa Krispie Treats stuffed with peppermint chocolate cookies and topped with peppermint crunch candy.

‘Tis the season for all things sweet and sinful, right?  Like many other bakers, there is no other time of the year that I bake more than around Christmas time.  Whether it’s treats for my co-workers, cookies for gift bags, or just a batch of brownies to munch on throughout the week, I seem to be making something almost every other day.  Which means on the days I’m not making something, I’m thinking of what I want to make next.  This recipe for a Christmas-fied rice krispie treat was one of my dreamt-up treats that I couldn’t wait to make happen the next day.

They came out even better than I had imagined in my head.  I loved the crunch from the chopped peppermint chocolate cookies and the added peppermint flavor from the Andes Peppermint Crunch candies on top.  Plus, they look festive. They make a great addition to any cookie tray or goodie bag this holiday season.
