Swapping in peppermint chips provides that same chocolate flavor with a hint of mint. Moving along to the second cookie, you can’t have the holidays without green and red sprinkled in! These festive sprinkles add a great flavor to your holiday cookies. It's the same dough, just two different cookies! Enjoy!
