Preparation

Step 1

Beat butter and sugar in large bowl; add egg, milk and vanilla, blending thoroughly. Stir together flour, cocoa, baking soda and salt. Add to butter mixture, blending well. Refrigerate dough about 1 hour or until firm enough to handle (dough will be a little soft).

Heat oven to 350. Line cookie sheets with parchment. Remove wrappers from Peppermint Patties.

Roll dough into 1 1/4" balls. For each cookie, flatted ball slightly; press Peppermint Pattie into dough. Mold dough around pattie so that it is completely covered. Place on prepared cookie sheet. Using knife edge press star design into surface of each cookie; sprinkle with decorators sugar.

Bake 12-14 min or until cookie is set; sprinkle with additional sugar if desired. Cool slightly; remove from cookie sheet to wire rack. Cool completely.
