Like many of you, I love the holidays! The best part? Family and good food!
I think we can all agree that family and food are a great combination. 🙂
On Turkey Day, we stick to pumpkin, cream, and fruit desserts. But once Black Friday hits, it’s all about mint.
I’ve shared some of our favorite mint recipes with you, like these Mint Cheesecake Bars and these Mint Melts. Today is no exception. I have another delicious mint recipe for the season.
These cookies are so easy to make and look so pretty and festive. They are delicious too! If you’re planning a trip to the store to pick up some cheap cookies for your next party, check out the easy ingredients for this recipe.
They don’t take much time or effort to make and I guarantee you’ll be complimented by family and friends!

Recipe Tips
- How many lollipops? I would start with about 6-8 lollipops, depending on how crispy you want the cookies to be.
- Make them soft: One trick to softening cookies is how long to bake. I recommend not baking them until golden, but until they are just set so they are still soft when they cool. To keep them soft, place a loaf of white bread in a storage container.
- Make them chewy: To make these cookies chewy, try using 1 cup brown sugar and ½ cup white sugar instead of 1 ½ cup white sugar. The higher moisture in brown sugar gives the cookies a chewy texture.
