Peppermint Cookie Bark!

Peppermint Cookie Bark!

Today's Peppermint Cookie Bark won my heart. Baking is such a great way to celebrate and spread love over the holidays.

Problem is, I'm not all that great at it. It has to be simple and straightforward or forget it.

I may as well just head to a local bakery.

This delicious recipe I'm sharing today comes together so easily, it's pretty much foolproof. Right up my ally.

I like to think that Betty Crocker just totally gets me.

Between amazing baking products to the perfect recipes to bring them to life.

Peppermint Cookie Bark

Have you ever shared baked goods with a friend or neighbor?

Their face just lights up. It's the time and love put into actually making something and sharing it that just warms the heart.

We're new in our neighborhood and it's been hard trying to meet people.

But, I found the answer! Baked goodies!

After I made up a batch, I wrapped them up nicely and headed over to my neighbor's house.

I've never seen someone look so thrilled with just a small action.  

Delicious peppermint bark that will blow your mind.

I think something good will come up this small gesture.

As far as the rest? We had company yesterday and the whole batch is history.

Time to make more and spread some more holiday cheer.

These are so easy to make, you won't believe it.

You'll be wondering why you hadn't tried making something so deliciously simple yet.

The magic all starts with a bag of Betty Crocker Sugar Cookie Mix.

You make the cookies pretty much according to the directions and roll out into a large square on a foil lined cookie sheet.

Bake them up for 10-14 minutes until light golden brown.
