Peppermint Oreos mmmmmm...

So I came across a new blog that I have totally fallen in love with.  It is called I heart naptime...cutest name ever!!!  On her blog I found a recipe for homemade peppermint oreos and knew that I just HAD to make them.  They are going to be perfect to eat with our hot chocolates before the Santa Claus parade!

Here is the line-up (minus the pepermint extract because it was out in the car still)...
I have never used boxed cake mix before so I was a little but skeptical, but man did they ever turn out delish.  I was making the batter while the fellas were still up so I did not get any pictures of the process...
BUT I did put them together after the boys were in bed so I had time to set them up in a pyramid and then prop this cute little elf with them for an after picture!!!  Could they be anymore festive?
