These were okay. Very easy to make! The peppermint definitely gave flavor to an otherwise bland dessert. They are pretty though and would like nice in Christmas tins.

What a great recipe! These were so good. I had to hide some from my husband just so I could eat a few. I followed the recipe exactly and was very pleased.
