Party Peppermint Patties


1 package Pillsbury Plus chocolate cake mix
1/2 cup shortening
1 T water
2 eggs
Powder sugar
48 chocolate covered cremefilled mints (you can also break up candy canes like the pic above)

Heat oven to 375F. Combined cake mix, shortening, water and eggs. Form dough into 1 inch balls and roll in powder sugar. Place 2 inches apart on greased cookie sheets. Bake 7-10 mins, or until edges are set. Immediately press a mint into center of cookie. Cool.

You can also use the powder sugar to make a glaze and sprinkle smashed up candy canes. Both equally good!!
