Chocolate Peppermint Pinwheel Cookies

There’s just something about Chocolate Peppermint Pinwheel Cookies that feels like pure holiday magic. Maybe it’s the swirl—those cheerful ribbons of chocolate and peppermint twirling together like they’re dancing at a Christmas party—or maybe it’s the way they manage to look both nostalgic and delightfully fancy at the same time. Whatever the reason, these cookies are guaranteed showstoppers, whether you’re filling a festive platter, wrapping up edible gifts, or heading to a cookie exchange where you definitely want to stand out.
They’re the kind of treat that makes people smile before they even take a bite, and once they do, that cool peppermint-kissed sweetness wrapped in rich chocolate seals the deal. Simple to make, fun to slice, and irresistibly pretty—these pinwheels are holiday spirit in cookie form.
