My friend and I made these together as a holiday gift for my teachers. We had tons of fun making the candy canes, but they were a little difficult because the dough was so soft. Still the cookies came out delicious and all my teachers loved them!

These cookies have a very mild flavor and turn out quite hard, like biscotti, so plan on serving them or reccomending them with coffee. They are very difficult to roll so chill them a while before attempting, adding flour only made them fall apart. Plan on spending a long time baking, these cookies are time consuming.
Good

Was a very easy recipe to follow, but very hard to make the canes, the dough was really moist and breakable, had a lot of trouble keeping the strands together.
Disappointing

The dough was extremely greasy and loose, making it very difficult to shape. After 20 minutes of effort that resulted in making 2 awful looking candy canes, I decided to give up and mush the dough togethe to create rainbow peppermint cookies.

I've been making this for years and it is one of the prettiest and most seasonal of the 30 we make for gifts. But I've given up twisting two doughs and do just one plain one. By mixing some red food dye with some egg yolk, I can paint on the stripe, so the effect is there, along with the crunched candy and everyone loves them just as much - with far fewer disasters in the construction.
Just like Grandma's

I have been using this recipe and baking these cookies ever since I can remember. My mother made them when I was young. This is a great festive cookie once you get a chandle on rolling teh two different colors of dough.
yum

I was inspired to finally make candy cane cookies for Christmas this year, so these were it. The flavor was great, and they were very cute - but very hard to twist without breaking. I ended up making somewhat fat candy canes so the twists wouldn't break.

Very good for the holiday season. I added some almond extract for a little more flavor but other than that they were great.
Loved the Cookies

Twisting the cookies together can be a pain, but they come out moist and delicious!
