Ingredients
– 2 cups all-purpose flour
– 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
– 1 cup granulated sugar
– 1 large egg
– 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
– 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
– 1/4 teaspoon salt
– 24 ounces cream cheese, softened
– 1 cup powdered sugar
– 1 teaspoon peppermint extract
– 1 cup crushed candy canes
– 1/2 cup white chocolate chips
– 1/4 cup shredded coconut
Instructions
1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
2. In a large bowl, cream together the butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the egg and vanilla extract.
3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until a dough forms.
4. Press half of the dough into the prepared baking dish, forming an even layer.
5. In a separate bowl, beat the cream cheese and powdered sugar until smooth and creamy. Stir in the peppermint extract.
6. Spread the cream cheese mixture over the cookie layer in the baking dish.
7. Crumble the remaining cookie dough over the cream cheese layer, creating an even top layer.
8. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the top is lightly golden and the center is set.
9. Allow the Christmas Cookie Lasagna to cool completely before cutting into squares.
10. Top with crushed candy canes, white chocolate chips, and shredded coconut.
Notes
For a richer flavor, use dark chocolate chips instead of white chocolate. You can also add a sprinkle of crushed peppermint candies for an extra festive touch.
