I think this would work with any candy! Just eliminate the peppermint extract. Creamy, quick and delicious... and much better chilled overnight- if you can wait! I like it with oreos or chocolate covered pretzels, but be creative! Graham Crackers, cookies, pretzels, it's all fabulous!

Ingredients:

• 8oz (one brick) cream cheese, softened
• 1/2 cup powdered sugar
• 1/4 t peppermint extract
• 8 oz container cool whip
• 1 cup crushed candy canes (or pick a candy you like)
• 1/4 cup chopped or mini dark chocolate chips

Instructions:

• Using a stand mixer or food processor, beat the cream cheese until smooth
• add sugar and peppermint extract, beat until smooth
• add the cool whip, beat until combined
• fold in the candy canes and chocolate chips
• Chill until ready to serve
