Peppermint, at least to me, is such a key ingredient to use during the holidays. There is just something about the flavor of peppermint that really brings everything together. If you are crazy about peppermint like I am, then I have a couple of recipes that I think your family will love. Like my Ghirardelli Peppermint Cheesecake. I know that look you just gave, yes, it features Ghirardelli White Chocolate, I mean what could be better than chocolate and cheesecake? My Peppermint White Chocolate Cookies are also always favorites during the holidays. Now, if you prefer to enjoy peppermint in a hot beverage, then my Boozy Peppermint Mocha will be a must-try!
