Chocolate Peppermint Cookies

This recipe does come from a box. Pillsbury sells this "Premium Cookie Mix" during the winter time. Instead of making the normal recipe for the cookies, I added a little twist. I included 1/4 of a cup of flour to make these amazing little Fudge Bites.

Ingredients:
1 stick of butter, softened
1 egg
1/4 cup flour
1 package Pillsbury Chocolate Cookie Mix with crushed peppermint candy
Pillsbury Easy Frost Decadent Chocolate Fudge

1) Heat oven to 375 degrees. Reserve peppermint candy pouch for topping.
2) Combine cookie mix, flour, softened butter and egg in medium bowl. Mix with spoon until soft dough is formed. Use level measuring teaspoon of dough to make 3/4 inch balls. Place on cookie sheet.
3) Bake 6-7 minutes or until edges are set. Remove immediately from cookie sheet to wire rack. Cool 5 minutes.
4) Remove five-star timp from frosting can. Insert nozzle in top of warm cookie. Press tip to fill cookie. Apply additional frosting on top in a spiral pattern. Sprinkle with peppermint candy pieces.

I already had open cans of icing, so I used those. I ran out of the chocolate, then the white, but had enough green to finish the batch. ENJOY!
