Chocolate-Peppermint Pinwheels



This Alton Brown's variation on his own All-In-One sugar cookie dough. I love the idea behind these cookies but I don't think they've turned out right yet. The very first year I made these cookies I had so pulverized the candy canes that when the cookies cooled they were hard as a rock.

This year's mistake was to change the chocolate. I felt that the unsweetened chocolate gave an ever so slight bitter taste to the cookies. I figured I'd change it up a bit and use semi-sweet chocolate instead. The problem with that is the semi-sweet chocolate was not quite chocolate-y enough so the peppermint overpowers the chocolate flavor. Back to the drawing board.
