I have a huge sweet tooth. One that really likes chocolate… I was very excited when I found these lovely treats because they are only 2 pts per package. Each package has 2 chocolate covered pretzels in them. These guys really hit the spot when you’re craving something sweet and salty.

These look delicious and they are very festive! Normally peppermint recipes don’t really catch my eye, but I will definitely have to try this one. Thanks!

you taking full advantage of the peppermint chocolate combo in all forms is highly appreciated. These look delightful. Merry Christmas Jen!
Do you add the crushed peppermint before or after adding the chocolate chips?

At the same time that you add the chocolate chips. I’m updating the recipe to be more clear.
I was wondering if i could just do a second cup of regular sugar instead of the brown sugar? i am all out…

Hi Taylor. Sorry for not responding sooner, I was offline for the holidays. The brown sugar really enhances the texture of these cookies. If you have molasses, you can make your own brown sugar by mixing molasses and white sugar. Otherwise, go ahead and use all white, just be aware that they won’t be as soft and chewy. Happy Holidays!
Do I need to adjust the recipe for my high altitude?
