My love of peppermint kicks into high gear during the holidays. I have no problem indulging in a peppermint dessert year round when the opportunity arises but during Christmas I am in hyper-peppermint mode! Last year I shared a few of my favorite peppermint and candy cane flavored treats and decided I should expand upon it this year! Plus it works great with Stasha’s Monday Listicles for today!
Peppermint Dessert Roundup: 10 Yummy Peppermint Treats
- Frosted sugar cookies with crushed candy canes – My favorite on the cookie tray and so easy to make! I LOVE the combination of butter cream frosting and crushed candy canes!
- Peppermint Chocolate Brownie Mug Cake – This is my newest creation and so easy to make.
- Candy Cane Tootsie Pops! Yum! I usually buy a couple bags to have on hand throughout the year. amazon affiliate link
- Candy Cane Chocolate Covered Pretzels – We plan on including these on our cookie trays this year!
- Peppermint Bark – This might make our cookie trays this year as well!
- Peppermint Hot Chocolate Cookies – Peppermint hot chocolate is pretty much the only thing I drink from Starbucks. They don’t sell diet coke.
I am sure these cookies are pretty darn good! - Chocolate Peppermint Moon Pies – Peppermint whoopie pies are on my to-do list and this looks like a great starting point!
- Peppermint Ice Cream – My favorite flavor of ice cream, I wish they sold it all year long!
- Trader Joe’s Candy Cane Joe Joe’s – You can also find peppermint Oreos at some stores as well. Both are awesome. amazon affiliate link
- Peppermint Ice Cream Cake – Easy to make using the peppermint ice cream and Candy Cane Joe Joe’s!

Peppermint hot chocolate cookies!? I am going to have to try that!
I always hate that they don’t have Diet Coke at Starbucks either. It’s my Mommy Crack. But those cookies sound amazing. Erin
Thanks.. and Diet Coke is definitely my Mommy Crack too!
You MUST try the white chocolate peppermint M&Ms that Target has this year (I know you love Target). They are sooo good. This is definitely the tastiest time of the year for us peppermint lovers. I am in hyper-peppermint mode too!
