Instructions

Preheat oven to 350.
Put the peppermint candies inside two ziploc bags and crush with a hammer.
Put 1/4 of the candy aside to decorate the cookies. Add the rest to the cookie mix in a bowl.
Add the oil, water and egg to the cookie mix and mix well.
Use your hands to roll small 1 inch balls of dough and put them on ungreased cookie sheets lined with parchment paper.
Bake for 8-10 minutes.
Remove the cookies to wire racks and let cool completely.
When the cookies are cool combine the Shortening Stick, powdered sugar, vanilla and peppermint extract in a mixing bowl and mix.
Add the cream 1 T at a time, beat after each until the filling reaches the desired consistency.
Use the creamy filling to sandwich two cookies together and decorate the edges with the reserved peppermint candy.
