I love these things, but I will never, ever make them again. Positives: very pepperminty, different from the normal holiday cookies everyone makes, and just plain yummy. Negatives: BACK ACHE. These things take forever to roll. I even had to get my hubby to help because my back was killing me after about 50 of them. Only make these if you have a lot of time! I didn't realize just how long they would take otherwise I would've started an hour or 2 earlier.

These cookies are delicious! I made two batches, the first one was great, but in the second batch I used just a tad bit more peppermint extract and they were even BETTER! Perfectly baked, melt in your mouth and a great hit with the friends and family!

I made this recipe for the first time yesterday and was very pleased with how they turned out. The cookies were soft in the middle and had the perfect amount of peppermint flavor and sweetness. I didn't wind up rolling the cookie dough in the sugar and only used 2 tablespoons of skim milk when making the glaze for a thicker consistency and added a tiny drop of peppermint extract to it. If your cookies came out too dry or crumbly, chances are are you added too much flour, probably inadvertently by scooping the flour directly into the cup. In order to prevent this I scoop flour with a spoon and dump the flour into the measuring cup and give the cup a little shake each time I add the flour. Level the measuring cup off using the straight edge of a butter knife.

These are awesome - they are very buttery but I thought the amount of peppermint flavoring was just right. Theses were gone quick!

These look so pretty on a cookie tray but the flavor is just okay. I drizzled the glaze on the cookies using a paistry bag with a very small tip and they came out looking great.

As is, I thought they needed more peppermint extract. I also was expecting more of a buttery, meltaway cookie and they were't. The candy canes also melted on my sheet pan, so maybe they were too big. I did add peppermint extract to the frosting to kind of pump up the flavor and that did help. I don't know if I would make these again though.

These are pretty and taste great but mine look nothing like the picture. They came out very flat. Next time I'll use cake flour and see if that helps.
