Iced Peppermint Cookies | Melissa Clark | Cookie Week | NYT Cooking

[@ameeabel8243]

Looking forward to all the cookies! These sound really good for a simple seasonal treat. Thanks, Melissa.

[@secretforreddit]

Peppermint is my all-time favorite flavor, so I expect I'll be making these all year round!

[@UNKNOWN_3700]

Poland Cookie🇵🇱🇵🇱🇵🇱

[@JordanRatcliff]

I spend the rest of the year in anticipation, waiting to see what Melissa is going to do for cookie week.

[@Rhyswithoutherspoon]

It's my favorite week of the year, cookie week!!

[@feliciabourque]

The cookies looked so delishious the marbled one was my favorite it's so pretty

[@rachelsuson27]

I only cook with salted butter and never adjust the added salt. 🤷🏻‍♀️ Never met a cookie that was too salty. 😅

[@nancyblair6187]

Awwww! Cookies for New York Santa!

[@katemacmillan4322]

One hack I've learned is you can roll out the cookie dough between parchment before you chill it. Much easier to roll out, and chills faster in the fridge too!

[@Katheverett]

Beautiful! And you can do other colors too!

At 5:32 you can see the image of Groucho Marx in the cluster of dough scraps in the lower right.

Cookie Week! ❤

[@ryanh5228]

So its ok to put raw eggs in the frosting? Is there an alternative?

[@SrJohnnyCat]

It should be okay as long as you use fresh eggs. You can also use meringue powder and water instead of egg whites.

[@rodelamonja]

You can use meringue powder and add water (basically dehydrated egg whites)

[@p1nkpolkadots]

IT'S COOKIE WEEK ‼️‼️‼️

[@Effundatrix]

They're beautiful as is, but I might also adapt them by using this recipe's peppermint royal icing on Melissa Clark's chocolate shortbread cookies (at nytimes cooking) for a peppermint patty or thin mint vibe

[@joyceng9182]

Pokeballs

[@ShannonKastner]

I love Melissa! I can't wait to make these.

[@nerddroid]

Hey melissa clark, Wouldnt it be dangerous to eat the raw egg whites from the royal icing?

[@kaeru788]

I gotta say though, it drives me crazy when mint cookies are packed loosely with other cookies. The minty smell seems to spread on to the other cookies and I hate that. 😕

[@Faye_ZIP]

Does baking powder or baking soda’s impact on the cookie change with resting time?

[@kyleminor]

GUYS OUR SHOW IS ON

[@donfaustino2010]

I know this wasn't the intention, but they look like Poke Balls and I'm here for it

[@AmySullivan-j5l]

I loved the marbleized icing look! Can you add unsweetened cocoa to the cookies?

[@andreaharthorn4327]

I love making SallyBakingAddiction's sugar cookies and surprisingly the recipe is very similar to these. Her chocolate version uses less flour to make up for the texture/dryness of the cocoa powder. So I think you could do something similar and swap about 3/4 of a cup of flour for 3/4 of a cup of cocoa?

[@Sunny-in-Tucson]

Doesn’t letting egg white sit out for Hours lead to stomach illnes? This has always worried me about royal icing.

[@eo-fi3fh]

[@LittleCheebs]

What happens if you add all 3 egg yolks to the cookie dough? I hate being left with a random egg yolk or white

[@Haigkupelian2220]

You’ll most likely have a richer texture and less crisp across your cookies. I’m not 100% sure though.

[@axlvrgh]

i thought those were babybel cheeses in the thumbnail

[@tienahabing2436]

There is no link for the free recipe, please add it to the notes.

[@CricketsBay]

The link is in the video description now.

[@richardg4764]

Me too but not peppermint

[@affliction6911]

Can this recipe cookie dough be used in a electric cookie gun??? Thank you for the recipe 😊

[@FutureCommentary1]

At this point I can maybe identify Eric and Melissa signature cookie during cookie week. I have already made Eric's lemon turmeric one. It's cooking on the baking sheet right now.

[@rxlhr7134]

it would be independent day cookie for polandian and indonesian lol

[@ctquilter]

Watching you maneuver all those ingredients into a tilt head Kitchenaid and scrape around the bowl/beater was painful. Make life easier for yourself: ditch the KA and use an Ankarsrum. (For reference, I made the switch after using my beloved Hobart-made, bowl-lift KA for 43 years; zero regrets).

[@posthocprior]

What's high fat butter? I've been baking a long time and I've never seen or heard of this.

[@MinaF99]

This is not Google

[@posthocprior]

@@MinaF99 There are many definitions of high fat butter on google.

[@LittleCheebs]

Europeans butter, I think

[@wesleychaffin4029]

European butter tends to have a higher % of fat compared to American butter

[@nantilbury489]

How are you thin?

[@CricketsBay]

I was hoping Cookie Week would be only Sohla and maybe Hamm.
