  1. Very yummy - and refreshing- cookie. I made mine really small, since that's what I think of when I hear "truffle", plus it meant I got a lot more. The only trouble i had was getting the crushed candy cane to stay on top of the cookie - so halfway through making them I started dunking the balls of dough into the candy canes before baking them. They didn't look identical to the other ones, but I will do it that way from now on to save myself a hassle. Thanks for a nice recipe!
     
  2. I had this recipe off Kraft and made these to give at Christmas. The cookie is not very sweet, and needs the candy canes on top. We used the soft type peppermint canes. They were delicious!
