Candy cane Faux-Joe's

Homemade Oreo's with peppermint flavor are just the holiday treat you've been looking for. Sometimes (or almost always), we end up eating so much during big holiday meals that we have little room left for dessert. Instead of baking up a Christmas storm in the form of pies or cakes, why not make these impressive Oreo imitators for people to nibble on post-meal? Or you can set them out for smaller holiday gatherings. Either way, they're sure to go fast.
