What is your favorite Holiday Christmas recipe?

Probably Hands down Peppermint Dreams.  Don’t be fooled by the name though.  There is a hint of peppermint, but it’s balanced perfectly so as not to be too minty.  I wish I had a picture!

4 egg whites
1 tsp salt
1/4 tsp cream of tartar
1 c. sugar
1 12oz package of chocolate chips
1/2 tsp peppermint extract

Wip egg whites to foam.
Add salt and cream of tartar.
Beat till stiff but not dry.
Add sugar 2T at a time
Fold in chips and extract
Drop by tsp. on heavy paper. (brown paper bags work best)
bake 25 minutes at 300 degrees.
remove while still slightly warm.

This recipe is very temperamental. Do not cook on a moist day or when you have run the dishwasher!

    Those sound good, but it sounds like the stars have to be aligned a certain way before you can make them. ;P

    My mom and I used to make these all the time…except we used hershey kisses and would drop the batter on the pan and then “bury” a kiss in the middle. I LOVE them

    Great cookies, well worth the effort. Hadn’t thought of the dishwasher warning, but if the Weather Channel says it’s over 50% humidity -
    don’t even think about trying to make them.
