Peppermint Cream Thumbprint Cookies

Nearly irresistible, these Peppermint Cream Thumbprint Cookies pack the perfect peppermint punch during the holiday season. But the best part is that this Christmas dessert recipe only has 5 ingredients for the thumbprint cookie portion and another 5 ingredients for the peppermint filling. This easy cookie recipe uses powdered sugar instead of granulated sugar; as a result, these peppermint cookies almost melt in your mouth. Each thumbprint cookie's filling has cream cheese in it, which adds to its creaminess. Top with crushed candy canes for a festive finish.
