Take a medium cookie scoop and scoop the cookie dough into balls. Place them about 2 inches apart on a cookie sheet. Gently press them down in the center. Bake the cookies on the center rack for 6-8 minutes, until the edges are golden brown. Tip - Try to make sure there are no chunks of candy cane on the edges of the cookie. The candy cane will melt and run if it's on the edge. Let the cookies cool for about 5 minutes on the cookie sheet then move them to a cooling rack to finish cooling.
