Categories     Dessert

Time 1h30m

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 cups white whole wheat flour or whole wheat pastry flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
3/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon espresso powder (optional but delicious)
1 1/4 cups chopped Andes mints or Andes Crème de Menthe Baking Chips
1/2 cup packed brown sugar (light or dark)
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup unsalted butter (melted and cooled to room temperature)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/3 cup unsweetened almond milk or nonfat milk (at room temperature (may need to add an additional 1 or 2 teaspoons))

Steps:

  • In a medium mixing bowl, stir together the white whole wheat flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and espresso powder. Fold in the Andes mints or baking chips.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the brown sugar, granulated sugar, melted butter, and vanilla until evenly combined. Add the milk and whisk again until the milk is incorporated into the butter and it is nice and smooth.
  • Scatter the flour mixture over the top, and, by hand with a wooden spoon or sturdy rubber spatula, stir to combine. Stop as soon as the flour disappears so that you don't overwork the dough. If the dough seems very dry, add 1 to 2 teaspoons of milk until it comes together. (It will become moist faster than you think!)
  • Clear space in your freezer and line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats. With a cookie scoop or spoon, portion the dough by 1 1/2 tablespoonfuls (the dough balls will be about 1 1/2 inches across). Arrange on the baking sheets, leaving at least 2 inches of space around each cookie. Freeze for 30 minutes or refrigerate for 24 hours. Alternatively, you can cover the bowl of dough with plastic wrap, then refrigerate it in the bowl for 24 hours or up to 3 days. Let stand the bowl stand at room temperature for 10 minutes, until the dough is softened enough to scoop, then portion as directed.
  • When ready to bake, place racks in the upper and lower thirds of your oven and preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Bake on the upper and lower racks for 11 to 12 minutes, until barely dry on top and just turning golden on the edges, switching the pans' positions once halfway through. The cookies will look underdone but will firm up as they cool. (You can also bake the pans one at a time in the center rack of your oven.)
  • Place the baking sheet on a wire cooling rack. Let the cookies rest on the sheet for 3 minutes, then transfer them to the cooling rack to finish cooling completely.

ANDES CRèME DE MENTHE COOKIES



Andes Crème de Menthe Cookies image

I use a baking stone and they turn out amazing as well, although, I suggest leaving them on the stone a bit longer than a pan to cool. :) Also, an easy way to keep cookies soft a few days longer, put a piece of bread in the container with them.

Tips:

  • Soften the Andes Mints: Before chopping the Andes Mints, place them in the freezer for 10-15 minutes to firm them up. This will make them easier to chop and prevent them from melting too quickly in the cookie dough.
  • Use High-Quality Ingredients: The quality of your ingredients will directly impact the taste of your cookies. Use high-quality butter, sugar, flour, and Andes Mints for the best results.
  • Don't Overmix the Dough: Overmixing the dough will result in tough cookies. Mix the dough just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Chill the Dough: Chilling the dough before baking helps to develop the flavor and prevent the cookies from spreading too much in the oven.
  • Bake the Cookies at the Right Temperature: The cookies should be baked at 350°F (175°C) for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the centers are set.
  • Let the Cookies Cool Completely: Allow the cookies to cool completely on a wire rack before enjoying them. This will help them to firm up and develop their full flavor.

Conclusion:

These Andes Creme de Menthe Chunk Cookies are a delicious and festive treat that is perfect for any occasion. With their minty flavor and gooey chocolate chunks, these cookies are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them. So next time you're looking for a sweet and satisfying snack, give these cookies a try!
