      Very festive and pretty! I added 1/2 tsp of peppermint extract as some reviewers suggested. Rolling hot cookies in the sugar does create a pretty glaze. I've also dusted the cooled cookies with extra powdere sugar.

      This is very similar to my almond snowballs, so I set the oven to 350* and the timer for 15 and they came out just fine. I added 1/2 tsp. of peppermint extract at some others' suggestions and it made them just minty enough. I also added some red sanding sugar to my confectioners sugar for rolling and it gave them a very festive look. This is a fine recipe. Thanks for posting.

      Very pretty! Love the pink peeking through! Rita L sent these to me in the cookie swap! I am so lucky! I will be making these in the future. A little more peppermint flavor would make these even better- maybe 1/2 t peppermint extract? Yummy and pretty!

      Very tasty; just the right amount of peppermint flavor for my tastes. I used about 15 peppermint disc hard candies, crushed. Some of them spread out a bit while baking but I sort of smooshed them back into rounds after taking out of oven and they were ok, just not as pretty. I also reduced the baking time to 10 minutes. Looked great on my Xmas cookie trays. Thanks Pamela!

      Not a bad cookie, but could be improved. If I were to make again, I would add peppermint extract to increase the flavor, and DON'T bake 15-17 min at 400 - you will have burnt cookies! I baked about 10 minutes (after one toasty pan full!) Also, be careful about the amount of food color - mine are the color of raw ground beef making them look frighteningly like uncooked meatballs! Oh well - live & learn!

      This is so much easier then forming into candy canes as I`ve made before. A nice touch for children. I rolled in sugar before and after baking!
