My dad isn’t big on Christmas, but he did have a few traditions that I have started with our family. One, we make his cinnamon rolls every year. These are a must! Second, my dad writes each child a special Christmas letter. We started this last year with Caleb and will write letters for both of our boys this year. Finally, my dad always puts an orange and Lindt LINDOR chocolate truffles in our stockings. I had to continue this tradition because oranges remind me of my dad and Lindt LINDOR truffles are the BEST! I already stocked up on Lindt LINDOR truffles for our stockings, but of course I couldn’t wait until Christmas to open them. I am worse than a little kid:) I HAD to open them up! I ate a few and then of course I made cookies. Oh, and I didn’t make any old cookie recipe, I made Deep Dish Chocolate Truffle Cookies with Lindt LINDOR White Chocolate Peppermint Truffles. These cookies are amazing and the perfect dessert for the holidays!

We grew up eating Lindt LINDOR Milk Chocolate Truffles and to stick with tradition I still bought some milk chocolate truffles, but I also branched out and tried Lindt LINDOR White Chocolate Peppermint Truffles.

You guys, you have to run to the store to try these truffles. They are SO good!

The Lindt LINDOR White Chocolate Peppermint truffles have a delicate white chocolate shell infused with peppermint pieces and an irresistibly smooth peppermint truffle filling. It is pretty much a holiday party in your mouth!

I chopped up the truffles and stirred them into chocolate cookie dough! I was so tempted to sit and eat the dough by the spoonful, but I knew good things were to come! I didn’t want a regular old cookie, I wanted a special dessert, so I made the cookies in ramekins, creating a deep dish cookie.

When the cookies were done baking, I topped them with vanilla ice cream, crushed candy canes, and chopped up truffles. The truffles melted inside the cookie and oozed out white chocolate peppermint goodness! I under baked the cookies a little so they were gooey, fudgy, and OH so good! And you want to know the best part? They are super easy to make! You can make the cookie dough and keep it in the fridge for up to 3 days. When your guests arrive, take out the cookie dough, turn on the oven, and bake! Mingle while your cookies are baking and then serve them warm with ice cream and the festive toppings! They will think you slaved over dessert because the cookies are out of this world! If you are looking for an easy holiday dessert that will WOW all of your friends and family, you HAVE to make these Deep Dish Chocolate Truffle Cookies. They will for sure make your holiday season a little, or A LOT, sweeter! Enjoy!
