]]>Whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl. In a separate bowl, beat butter and sugar together with a hand mixer until well blended. Then, add egg, milk, and peppermint extract to the mix and beat until everything is blended together. Remove half the dough from the bowl, shape it into a disc, and wrap it with plastic. Cover the remaining dough with red food coloring. Then, shape the red dough into a disc and place both discs in the fridge for at least two hours.
Remove the two discs from the fridge and divide each one into 24 pieces. Roll each piece into a 6-inch long rope and twist one red and one white piece together, forming a cane. Once you’re finished rolling each cane, place them on a baking sheet and sprinkle with sanding sugar. Finally, preheat the oven to 350°F and bake the cookies until lightly golden in color. Allow sufficient time to cool before serving.

]]>Especially if you’re in a cold place this holiday season, why not take a trip down south to Mexico? There, you will find that a popular Christmas snack is bunuelos. Some people say they actually started off as a Hannukah treat, but regardless, these fried cookie type treats are simply delicious, especially when covered in cinnamon and a little sugar.
Sometimes called Kolacky or kolaches, these Eastern and Central European treats are a staple in countries like Hungary, the Czech Republic, and beyond. Kolacky are little pieces of pastry filled with anything from a poppy seed filling to apricot marmalade, and folded into a beautiful diamond shape.
These cookies are popular in the US all year round, especially in New York, but in reality, they are only holiday time cookies in Austria where they were created in the town of Linz. Linzer cookies are a shortbread sandwich cookie that has the middle cut out of the top cookie to see the raspberry jam filling on the inside. You can also find them in some parts of Germany and they are a great festive cookie.
