We’ve said goodbye to pumpkin spice lattes for the year, and it’s time for peppermint mochas to shine in the winter spotlight. Your mocha-holic friends will love this dessert version — a peppermint mocha pudding cookie from Inside BruCrew Life. So much chocolate, coffee and peppermint flavor piled into a moist little pudding cookie, it’s hard to have just one.
