=== Ingredients ===<br />
* 2/3 cup regular shortening unflavored<br />
* 2/3 cup unsalted butter room temperature<br />
* 2 cups white sugar<br />
* 1 large egg + 1 large egg yolk<br />
* 1 tablespoon corn syrup<br />
* 2 teaspoons vanilla extract<br />
* 1/4 teaspoon peppermint extract<br />
* 3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour<br />
* 2 teaspoons baking powder<br />
* 1/2 teaspoon salt<br />
* 2/3 cup peppermint crunch sprinkles (I crushed up about 6 candy canes for some extra flavor.)<br />
* Cream Cheese Peppermint Frosting<br />
* 1/4 cup (4 tablespoons) butter softened not melted<br />
* 4 ounces cream cheese softened but not melted<br />
* 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract<br />
* 1/2 teaspoon peppermint extract not mint extract<br />
* 2 and up to 2 1/2 cups powdered sugar (depending on desired consistency)<br />
* Peppermint crunch sprinkles to top<br />
<br />
=== Preparation ===<br />
Preheat the oven to 350.<br />
<br />
Beat together the shortening, butter, and add white sugar until light and creamy.<br />
<br />
Mix in the egg, egg yolk, corn syrup, and vanilla extract.<br />
<br />
Beat in the peppermint extract to taste.<br />
<br />
Add in the flour, baking powder, salt and crushed candy canes. Mix until just combined.<br />
<br />
Drop ball shaped spoonfuls onto baking sheet. Flatten out into a disc for even cooking.<br />
<br />
Bake 2 inches apart on a parchment lined cookie sheet.<br />
<br />
Bake 9-12 minutes. NOTE: It's best to slightly under-baking the cookies, letting them cool most of the way<br />
<br />
Beat together the softened butter, softened cream cheese, vanilla, and peppermint extract.<br />
<br />
Beat in the powdered sugar, slowly adding about 1/2 a cup at a time until a smooth frosting is formed.<br />
<br />
You can add a little milk if needed to thin your frosting to desired consistency.<br />
<br />
Frost the cookies and add peppermint crunch sprinkles to the top.<br />
<br />
Store in an airtight container at room temperature.<br />
