Peppermint Fudge Cookie Sandwiches

Wonder what to do with your left over candy canes?  Here is an awesome recipe for you - of course it is from my friend Beka's kitchen.  Or really pretty holiday treats.  Use up the left over Halloween peppermint patties with the festive candy canes and you have utilized junk from two holidays!  Don't say I never gave you a great idea!  Lol!

3/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate morsels
1/4 cup butter
1/2 cup sugar
1 egg
3/4 cup all purpose flour
2 candy canes or 8-10 mini-peppermint hard candies
1/4 cup white or semi sweet chocolate morsels (only because I don't like white)
10-12 mini foil-wrapped peppermint patty candies unwrapped

Step one: preheat oven to 375
Step two: parchment paper on cookie sheet
Step three: combine chocolate morsels and butter; microwave on high for 40-60 seconds or until smooth
Step four: add sugar and egg and mix till well blended
Step five: add flour
Step six: drop 20 level scoops of batter 1 inch apart onto pan, bake for 9 -11 minutes or until edges are set (do not over bake)
Step seven: crush candy cane
Step eight: melt white chocolate and stir until smooth and add the candy cane
Step nine: turn over 1/2 of the cookies and top with the peppermint patties.  Turn them into sandwiches with one cookie on top and one cookie on bottom.  Drizzle the chocolate with the chocolate with the candy canes.
