Cooking Instructions:

1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
2. Cream the Butter and Sugars: In a large mixing bowl, beat the room temperature butter with the granulated sugar and brown sugar using an electric mixer. Mix on medium speed until the mixture is light and fluffy, about 3-4 minutes.
3. Add Egg and Vanilla: Add the egg and vanilla extract to the butter mixture. Beat until well combined.
4. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt.
5. Combine Mixtures: Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet mixture. Mix on low speed until the dough forms and is just combined.
6. Divide the Dough: Split the dough into two equal pieces. Leave one portion plain and place the other in a separate bowl.
7. Color the Dough: In the bowl with the second portion of dough, add the red food coloring and mix until fully incorporated. Repeat the same with the remaining portion of dough, adding the green food coloring until well mixed.
8. Chill the Dough: Wrap each dough portion in plastic wrap and refrigerate for about 30 minutes to firm up, making it easier to roll.
9. Roll out the Dough: After chilling, take the red dough and roll it out into a rectangle on a lightly floured surface, about ¼ inch thick. Repeat this step with the green dough, ensuring both rectangles are the same size.
10. Create the Swirl: Carefully place the green rectangle over the red rectangle. Starting from one end, roll the dough tightly into a log. Use a large piece of plastic wrap to help shape it if necessary. Chill the log in the refrigerator for an additional 30 minutes.
11. Slice the Cookies: Remove the dough log from the refrigerator and unwrap it. Using a sharp knife, slice the log into ¼-inch thick cookies.
12. Bake the Cookies: Place the sliced cookies on the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are set and lightly golden.
13. Cool: Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for about 5 minutes before transferring them to wire racks to cool completely.
14. Serve and Enjoy: Once cooled, these vibrant Christmas Swirl Cookies are ready to be enjoyed. Perfect for sharing or as a festive treat at your holiday gatherings!

9. Chill the Dough: Wrap the formed dough log in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or until it is firm enough to slice.

11. Bake Cookies: Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden. Be careful not to overbake them; the cookies will firm up as they cool.
12. Cool and Dust: Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to wire racks to cool completely. Once cooled, dust the cookies with powdered sugar for a snowy finish.

Festive Candy Cane Swirl cookies are a charming and colorful addition to your holiday baking repertoire. These delightful cookies combine a buttery dough with the invigorating minty flavor of crushed candy canes, swirled into a vibrant red and white pattern. Perfect for sharing during the festive season, these cookies not only taste delicious but also make for an eye-catching treat on any holiday platter.

Cooking Instructions:

1. Preheat the Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper and set them aside for later.
2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. This guarantees that the leavening agent is well distributed throughout the dough.
3. Cream Butter and Sugar: In a large mixing bowl, use an electric mixer to cream the room temperature butter and granulated sugar together on medium speed until it is light and fluffy, which should take about 3-4 minutes.
4. Add Egg and Vanilla Extract: Crack the egg into the butter-sugar mixture and add the vanilla extract. Mix together at medium speed until fully combined and smooth.
5. Incorporate Dry Ingredients: Gradually add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined. Be careful not to over-mix; the dough should be soft but not sticky.
6. Divide the Dough: Divide the cookie dough into two equal portions. Place one portion in a clean bowl and keep the other in the mixing bowl.
7. Color the Dough: To one portion of the dough, add the red food coloring. Start with 1 teaspoon and mix until you achieve your desired shade of red. If necessary, add more color gradually.
8. Prepare Candy Cane Filling: Fold the crushed candy canes into the white portion of the dough, mixing gently until evenly distributed without over-mixing.
9. Create Swirls: On a lightly floured surface, take the plain white dough and place it on one side. Take the colored red dough and place it next to the white dough, then gently roll or press them together into a rectangle about ¼ inch thick.
10. Make the Swirls: Once you have the rectangular shape, carefully roll the dough up into a log, starting from one of the short ends. Try to roll it tightly but not too tightly to avoid squishing the dough.
11. Chill the Dough: Wrap the rolled dough in plastic wrap and place it in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes to firm up, making it easier to slice.
12. Slice and Bake: After chilling, remove the dough from the refrigerator and slice it into ¼-inch thick rounds. Place them on the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
13. Bake Cookies: Bake in the preheated oven for about 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. The centers may look slightly underbaked; they will continue to firm up as they cool.
14. Cool and Dust: Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to wire racks to cool completely. Once cooled, dust with powdered sugar for an extra festive touch.
