Candy Cane Brownie Blossom Recipe

Candy Cane Brownie Blossom Recipe

On Friday I hosted our second annual baking exchange and today I have joined some of my favorite bloggers to bring you a virtual Christmas cookie exchange! I love Christmas Baking Exchanges because you go to the party with one kind of cookie, but come home with dozens of other goodies to taste!  There’s nothing better than seeing all of the cookies out in their decorative packages and getting to fill up your bags with family favorites from friends.  I can’t wait to share this Candy Cane Brownie Blossom Recipe so that you can make it today…


Candy Cane Brownie Blossom Recipe Don’t they all look fabulous?!!  My contribution to our Baking Exchange this year were these amazing Candy Cane Brownie Blossom cookies.  Truly they are to die for!  My friend Amy brought them to our swap last year and our whole family was hooked because they are absolutely delicious.  I have posted this recipe before but now I have this fancy new printable recipe version for you!  Can I get a whoop, whoop?!?!  Seriously… so good!  Candy Cane Brownie Blossom Recipe

Be sure to check out, pin, print and share all of the recipes in this awesome swap!  Just try not to lick the screen Mmmmkay?

Tips for Holiday Baking:

  • Double or triple recipes to make large batches of goodies.  This allows cookies and bars to be made in an assembly line fashion and speeds up the process.
  • Pick holiday recipes that compliment each other and look good plated together.  For example every year I like to make Candy Cane Brownies, Eggnog Cookies, Cranberry and Pistachio Shortbread and Peppermint Dipped Chocolate Cookies for a good variety.
  • Participate in a Holiday Baking Exchange!  This is a great way to prepare for a season of holiday entertaining.
  • Start baking early and store goodies in the freezer until they are needed.  I use these large Rubbermaid food storage containers (aff link) to save a mixture of cookies and bars in my freezer so that I have them ready to go for Christmas parties and gatherings all season long.

    Hi. I understand the recipe calls for olive oil. That is unusual in a banking recipe. I just want to be sure it is olive oil and not vegetable oil. Did you use extra virgin? light? or just pure olive oil? This is on my cookie list for this year. I hope you still read your comments as I understand this post was quite some time ago. Found you on pinterest. Excited to try these. Thank you.

      Hi Lisa,
      extra virgin olive oil is what I used but you could totally use vegetable oil in a pinch (Ive used that too). Enjoy!

    Has anyone had success with this recipe? Mine came out flat, I’ve made them before using a different recipe and it seems this one is lacking an extra tsp of baking powder anf another cup of flour…

      Did you use olive oil? I will be posting a similar recipe in the comments ๐Ÿ™‚

    I just made these and they oozed all over the tray, didn’t stay firm to push down with kiss. The only thing I did was substitute olive oil for butter. Would that cause what happened? I was so excited about these and now they look like a puffed up scone.

      December 22, 2016 at 9:27 pm

      The olive oil is important – we’ve noticed that any substitution makes these cookies runny ๐Ÿ™ I’ll be posting another, similar recipe that a friend has success with, in the comments. xo

    Hello friends!
    Just a note – be sure to use olive oil in this recipe – it makes the cookies puff up. Alternately my friend Amy shared another version that seems to be less troublesome:

    4 oz unsweetened bakers chocolate, melted
    2 cups white sugar
    ยฝ cup butter or margarine
    3 eggs
    1 tsp vanilla extract
    1 tsp peppermint extract
    2 1/2 cups flour
    2 tsp baking powder
    ยฝ tsp salt

    1 cup icing sugar
    5 dozen Hersheys Candy Cane Kisses
