This recipe is very pretty and festive-looking on a cookie platter. I often cover a plate of these meltaways with red or green plastic wrap and a bright holiday bow in one corner. And yes, they really do melt in your mouth! —Denise Wheeler, Newaygo, Michigan

Truly melt-in-your-mouth! It's hard to eat just one. The peppermint flavor is just right & it's not to sweet.

This is the perfect holiday cookie. I had 3 cookie exchanges this year and used it for all of them...went over big time! Everyone wanted to know the recipe and then loved it when they found pout how easy they are.

These cookies turned out great! I have made them for a few Christmas seasons. I added red food coloring to the cookie dough also, just for fun.

Looks like ToH had discarded a lot of old reviews. I reviewed these once and it is no longer posted - but I could only choose 2 starts today - must be my old review! We did not like these at all. They were pasty and oily. Not worth the calories.

I make these every year. They just melt in your mouth. I leave off the frosting, they are sweet enough on their own.

This cookie is one of our family;s favorite. Every year we make these and give them as gifts with other cookies.

The dough was too crumbly to even make a cookie. I ended up throwing the whole batch away :(
