How to make
-
STEP 1
Heat oven to 350°F.

Combine powdered sugar, butter, egg, peppermint extract and vanilla in bowl. Beat at medium speed until creamy. Add flour and salt; beat at low speed until well mixed.
-
STEP 3
Divide dough in half. Stir candy into half of dough. Beat food color into remaining half of dough.
-
STEP 4
Roll 1 teaspoon of each dough to 4-inch rope to create each candy cane. Place 2 ropes side by side; twist gently and roll dough together. (For best results, complete cookies 1 at a time to prevent drying out.)

STEP 5
Place 2 inches apart onto ungreased cookie sheets. Curve 1 end to form handle of cane.
-
STEP 6
Bake 10-12 minutes or until set. Let stand 1 minute on cookie sheets; remove to cooling rack.

If dough is dry, stir in 1 teaspoon milk. If dough is too soft, refrigerate 1 hour or stir in 1 to 2 tablespoons flour.
