Candy Cane Dip and Dark Chocolate Sugar Cookies

I’m sure you’ve learned by now I have a slight obsession with mint and chocolate.  From cupcakes to brownies, it might be my all time favorite combination.  This dip and cookies take that obsession to a whole new level.  The dip is divine.  As in, eat-it-with-a-spoon, divine.  It’s creamy, pepperminty, flecked with candy cane chunks and so different than anything else I’ve made for Christmas.  Seriously, if you want to wow people at your next holiday party, make this dip.  It literally took me about five minutes to mix together and then I made these Dark Chocolate Sugar Cookies to go with them.  A match made in heaven.  The dip would also be good with bite-size brownies, chocolate chip cookies or even pretzels.

Enjoy!
