My thoughts:

I was wondering why peppermint is such a pop flavor at the holidays, I retrieve wouldn't something seasonal similar citrus alive on a more than natural choice? Thanks to living inwards the modern world, I works this article that asks this significant question. Apparently candy canes started out every fleck a stick refined saccharify candy given to children to slice of project on them from beingness noisy inwards church? I'm a piddling skeptical. Apparently no 1 knows why peppermint flavoring was added or why they were striped. My estimate is that similar together with hence many food source stories is that the guy inwards all likelihood had peppermint flavoring inwards improver to ruddy dye on mitt inwards improver to voila. It is an eye-catching combo inwards improver to inwards that house weren't every bit good many peppermint candies out inwards that house salve the York Peppermint Pattie.

It also credits Bobs for popularizing candy canes after the conception of an automated candy cane machine that made it possible to build curved candy canes vs the peppermint sticks that had been popular. I convey to say, Bobs are far inwards improver to away the best commerical candy canes out there, annoying lack of apostrophe aside, together with hence I am not surprised they are were at the forefront of the candy cane revolution.

Anyway, it seems similar no 1 knows alone I exercise dearest peppermint inwards improver to the holidays are every fleck skillful an excuse every fleck whatever other to build something pepperminty. These cookies dyad it upwards with its BFF, chocolate inwards improver to exercise a refreshing crisp piddling cookie. I lone made a small-scale batch because we are lone ii people alone sense gratis to double to triple the recipe, it should alive on fine.
