PEPPERMINT MELTAWAYS
This recipe for peppermint meltaways is very pretty and festive-looking on a cookie platter. I often cover a plate of these peppermint cookies with red or green plastic wrap and a bright holiday bow in one corner. And yes, they really do melt in your mouth! -Denise Wheeler, Newaygo, Michigan
