Thisgift set is seriously the chef's kiss! ?? I purchased this for the Chile Oil (to did for!) But plan on gifting this to my sister as a housewarming gift as well! I am now spoiled and cannot buy any other kind of Olive Oil and Honey. Once you taste Flamingo Estate level of quality, you can't go back to anything else!
After the cookies bake, let them cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes. Then carefully transfer them (I use a metal spatula/turner for this) to a smaller baking sheet or a plate. Press a candy cane kiss ever-so-lightly in the center of each cookie. Immediately transfer the cookies to the freezer for 10 minutes. The warm cookies help the candies adhere, and the cold freezer temperature keeps them from melting.
Awesome recipe! To combat the dryness I substituted one tablespoon of butter with applesauce. The dough was just sticky enough for the sprinkles and sugar to stick. I rolled all the batter into balls at once and then rolled them in the sprinkles and sugar. By the time about 1/3 had been coated, the dough balls were drying out just enough that the sprinkles stopped sticking as well. I started rolling each one between my hands for 10 seconds or so first and that fixed it. Love how they turned out!
