Ingredients
  

  • 1 (15.25 oz) box chocolate cake mix
  • 2 eggs
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil
  • 24 mini peppermint patties unwrapped
  • holiday sprinkles for rolling

Method
 

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F and line baking sheets with parchment.
  2. In a medium bowl, stir together the cake mix, eggs and oil until a soft dough forms.
  3. Scoop a tablespoon of dough, flatten it in your palm and set a mini peppermint patty on top. Cover with another small scoop of dough and roll into a ball so the candy is sealed inside.
  4. Roll each ball in sprinkles and place 2 inches apart on the sheets.
  5. Bake 8 to 10 minutes, until the edges are set. Cool 5 minutes on the pan, then move to a wire rack.

Notes

Swap the sprinkle colors for any holiday.
