Total Time: 32 min | Makes: about 4-1/2 doz. or 26 servings, 2 cookies each
Ingredients:
- 1 pkg. (8 oz.) PHILADELPHIA Cream Cheese, softened
- 3/4 cup (1-1/2 sticks) butter, softened
- 1 cup sugar
- 2 tsp. vanilla
- 2-1/2 cups flour
- 1/2 tsp. baking soda
- 4 squares BAKER'S Semi-Sweet Chocolate, melted
- 1 pkg. (6 squares) BAKER'S White Chocolate
- 12 hard peppermint candies, crushed
HEAT oven to 350ºF. Beat cream cheese, butter, sugar and vanilla in large bowl with mixer until blended. Add flour and baking soda; mix well. Blend in semi-sweet chocolate. (Dough will be stiff.)
ROLL tablespoonfuls of dough into 52 balls; roll each into 3-inch-long rope. Place, 2 inches apart, on baking sheets, bending top of each slightly to resemble candy cane.
BAKE 10 to 12 min. or until puffed and set; cool 5 min. on baking sheets. Transfer to wire racks; cool completely. Melt white chocolate; drizzle over cookies. Sprinkle with crushed candies. Let stand until chocolate is firm.
