Apply a generous layer of frosting to each chocolate cookie, leaving a bit of chocolate cookie showing out around the edges. Set aside.
In a food processor, combine the coconut and powdered sugar. Use the pulse setting about 5 times to chop the coconut into small shreds.
Sprinkle a little bit of the sugared coconut on each cookie.
Use the clear sparkling sprinkles over the top to fill in any open gaps.
Press the peppermint patties into the bottom center of each cookie.
Press three junior mints on top of the peppermint patties.
Serve and enjoy!

Use store bought or one of our homemade cookie recipes. We have two that work great.
Use store bought or homemade peppermint candies.
Use store bought or homemade icing.
Apply the icing layer thick enough where the peppermint patties can “stick” into it.
Use M&Ms and smaller chocolate cookies in place of the peppermint candies.
Sweetened coconut can also be used, if preferred.
You can make these cookies without coconut and use sprinkles, instead.
Store at room temperature or fridge in an airtight container for up to 4 days.
