These Triple Chocolate Candy Cane Cookies are the perfect Christmas Cookie! Soft, chewy, extra pepperminty, and laden with lots of chocolate! Totally decadent dessert for the holidays.
I’m a *leetle bit* crazy. I made these Chocolate Candy Cane Cookies + this video yesterday and I am posting it tuh-tuh-tuhday junior.
I never.ever.ever do that. Like, ever.
Get out of my mind T.Swift.
I was just so excited because I made a video! Obviously not as good as this video because contrary to popular belief, I’m not a production company made up of 5 ridiculously good looking men.
But, I’ve made a new years resolution to create more videos in 2015 and thought I’d get a head start. {Get ahead of the game and follow me on Youtube here.}
There are a lot of things that I don’t like about this video but there are a few things that I do which tells me there’s hope for me and my video-ing capabilities.
So, dear friends, some questions for you to answer in the comments:
1. Do you like videos? Are they more helpful then sayyyyy…..step by step photos? What do you prefer?
2. Would you like to see more videos?
3. a. Do you like chocolate? And cookies?
b. Do you like the peppermint/chocolate combination?
4. Brooke pretty much made these cookies herself. That’s not a question.
Anyways, I’d love for you to watch the video in the recipe card and let me know what you think of it and the recipe if you have a quick second to let me know.
Thanks, friends! Have a wonderful weekend 🙂

Now 5 years later!!! I bet Brooke is quite the baker these days!!! Thanks for keeping your blog going as your family grows!!! Love this recipe!
[…] Triple Chocolate Candy Cane Cookies–chocolate and peppermint RULE ALL around the holidays. […]
These have made their way into my holiday baking this year ????
These are our favorite cookies to leave out for Santa! They are so good and so chocolatey.
So cute! The cookies look fabulous! Thanks for your posts!
I absolutely LOVE the video!!! That is my favorite kind of video – the kind that gives you a sneak peak into the kitchen where a recipe is made, while still giving you some visual direction on how to make the recipe. You should definitely do more! And these cookies look fabulous!
I must have been making my Peppermint Brownies at the same time! I can’t wait to make the cookie version soon too! Your video is gorgeous, and Brooke is such a cutie (I may be biased, my middle name is Brooke 🙂 ) – good on her for making these cookies nearly all by herself!
When do you add the milk?
Love the video! Your kids are adorable!
You’re daughter is so incredibly sweet.
Love this video, the music & editing was great. And Brooke is adorableeeeee. 🙂
Luv the video, and the children were a bonus. Wishing my baby wasnt all grown up, but still have the memories.
LOVE the cookies & the video! Your kids are so cute!
Recipe looks divine, but I don’t have the patience for videos to load and I’d rather see the step-by-step. With so much computer overload, I don’t ever bother to watch videos; I can scan step-by-step in a few secs, but won’t bother watching any videos.
Yes! I’d love to see more videos. They’re always fun…I like seeing behind the scenes in people’s kitchens more than photos can allow for. Plus this recipe looks incredible. Nice work!
Love, love, love the video & COOKIES/choc/peppermint/chocolate/chocolate/chocolate! (Did I say chocolate?) Please, create more videos! Your “assistants” are growing way too fast!! Seems like it was last week when Brooke was a toddler/u found out you were pregnant with Blake! Keep up the great work Lauren.
What a great video and amazing cookies! I cracked up at Brooke’s green tongue and was waiting to see how that worked into the recipe! 😉
These look great, like the video idea, but use the step by step pics cuz, they are, ummm, step-by-step, lol, and move at my own pace. Out of the 12 cookies, bars, candies, I am making, I already have two mint recipes or I would definitely make these!
Looks soooo yummy!!
Very cute. Brooke could have been making mud pies and I still would have loved it such a cutie.
Love it!
Ps: in 0:32, Brooke’s tongue is green! lol
Love the recipe and the cute little video! Would definitely like to see more videos!
