Mint-Mallow Sandwich Cookies image

A lightened version of Whoopie Pies, with a peppermint twist to make them Christmas-y. Kids love them! Instead of adding peppermint extract and red food coloring, you can add 1/2 cup crushed peppermint candies to the marshmallow fluff. $mdash;Dion Frscher, Ann Arbor, Michigan

I think these cookies would be even better if you used a different type of mint extract. Maybe peppermint or spearmint.
