White chocolate and peppermint – could there be a better match?  I submit that there could not.  When the winter season rolls around, I start looking for all things white chocolate and peppermint.

These cookies always hit the spot and with 6 ingredients, they are SO simple.  In fact, this is the perfect recipe to bring your kids into the kitchen for.  We love making these together as a family and my older kids can almost make them entirely by themselves.

If you’re looking for an easy and quick treat to share with neighbors and friends, these white chocolate peppermint cookies can be doubled or even tripled (if you’ve got a big enough bowl)!
