  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together cocoa powder and flour.
  3. Add flour mixture to butter mixture, mix on low speed until combined, scraping down sides of b owl once. Divide dough in half; wrap each half in plastic. Flatten each half into a disk; chill until firm, at least 1 hour.
  4. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or Silpat baking liners. Set prepared pans aside.
  5. Lightly sprinkle a clean work surface with confectioners' sugar. Roll out dough to an 1/8 -inch thickness. Using a 2-inch cookie cutter, cut out cookies, and transfer to prepared baking sheets, spacing cookies 1/2-inch apart. Chill any trimmings and roll out again.
  6. Bake the cookies until you can smell chocolate, about 12 minutes. Transfer the baking sheets to a wire rack to cool.
  7. Bring cream to a boil in a small saucepan set over medium-high heat. Add chocolate to hot cream. Stir with a rubber spatula until chocolate has melted and mixture is smooth. Add peppermint oil, or extract. Remove from heat; let ganache cool slightly, about 20 minutes.
  8. Transfer chocolate to a resealable plastic bag; seal , and cut off one corner at an angle. Pipe about 1 teaspoon onto the center of half of the wafers. Top with the remaining wafers. Chill the assembled cookies until firm, about 10 minutes. Store in an airtight container up to 2 days.
