CHOCOLATE PEPPERMINT SNAPS
This is one of my family's favorite cookies. My brother baked them for a Boy Scout fundraiser, and they were a top seller! They look like gingersnaps, but they're flavored with peppermint candies and are quite crispy. It's no wonder they're always such a hit.

My mom cut this recipe out of a Chicago Area newspaper about 30 years ago and they have been part of our Christmas cookies ever since. Great way to use all those broken candy canes!
