White Chocolate Pudding Peppermint Cookies that are sure to be a hit on your Christmas cookie plate this year.

Ingredients

1 cup butter
3/4 cup brown sugar
3/4 cup sugar
2 eggs
2 tsp vanilla
1 tsp salt
1 tsp baking soda
1 Tbsp hot water
2 1/4 cups all purpose flour
3.75 oz Hershey’s White Chocolate Pudding Mix
1 bag Peppermint M&M’s
10 Candy Cane Oreos

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350 deg F. Prepare a cookie sheet with parchment paper or a silicon mat.
Beat the butter until smooth and add the sugars. Beat for 1-2 minutes, until creamy.
Add in one egg one at a time, beating until combined.
Dissolve the baking soda in the tablespoon of hot water. Beat in the baking soda, vanilla and salt. Add the flour and pudding and mix until dough forms.
Mix in the M&M’s and Oreos with a large wooden spoon.
*Note – Don’t over mix the Oreos. The red center will start to run and “stain” the cookies.
Scoop dough by heaping tablespoons and place on the cookie sheet.
Bake for 10-12 minutes until edges are set.
Let cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before removing to wire rack to cool completely.

You’re so totally welcome!

I found the M&M’s at Target over in the holiday area. Wanna know what else I found there??? Candy Cane Oreos! Whoa!

I am so in love!

I want them to carry these year round! Why should they be special for Christmas? I love peppermint and candy canes year round, don’t you?

So I ate a few of the Oreos, then I broke up a few and tossed them into the cookie dough…

Sigh… You’re even more welcome!

The flavor was unbelievable! I still have some in my freezer, but at the rate that I’m sneaking these, I don’t think my neighbors are going to get any in their goodie bags.

My Mom is having a Christmas party and for dessert she is planning an Ice Cream Sundae bar. I told her to pick up some of the M&M’s and the Candy Cane Oreos for toppings.

Haha! I’m totally my Mother’s daughter because she ended up having cookies and candy for dinner while preparing everything!

I hope that everyone is ready for Christmas. There are just a few days left to make these amazing White Chocolate Pudding Peppermint Cookies.
