Categories     Dessert

Time 27m

Number Of Ingredients 10

5 tablespoons unsalted butter (at room temperature)
2 tablespoons nonfat plain Greek yogurt (at room temperature)
3/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons coconut sugar
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1 large egg (at room temperature)
1 1/2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
3/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1 3/4 cups white whole wheat flour
10 ounces mixed mint and dark chocolate chips

Steps:

  • In a large bowl or the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream the butter, Greek yogurt, coconut sugar, and granulated sugar with an electric mixer on medium speed until very light and fluffy, about 4 full minutes, stopping to scrape the bowl as needed.
  • Add egg and vanilla. Beat until incorporated, scraping down the bowl as needed. The mixture will look curdled, which is just fine.
  • Beat in the baking soda and salt until combined. Reduce the mixer speed to low and gradually add the white whole wheat flour, beating just until it disappears. The dough will look crumbly.
  • By hand with a rubber spatula or wooden spoon, stir in the chocolate and mint chips. For the best flavor and to make sure the cookies are not too dry, refrigerate for at least 1 hour or overnight.*
  • When ready to bake, place a rack in the center of your oven and preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat. With a cookie scoop or spoon, portion the cookies by heaping tablespoons, spacing them 1 inch apart on the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 7 minutes, until barely dry on the top and edges but still gooey and soft inside. Let cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then gently transfer to a cooling rack. (I like to slide my piece of parchment or silicone baking mat right off the baking sheet and onto the cooling rack.)

MINT CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES

Enjoy these cookies during the Christmas season, and share with loved ones. They're made with little pieces of peppermint candy canes for an extra-festive flourish

Provided by Liberty Mendez

Categories     Afternoon tea, Dessert

Time 29m

Number Of Ingredients 10

125g salted butter
125g light brown soft sugar
100g caster sugar
1 large egg
225g plain flour
½ tsp baking powder
2 drops peppermint extract
100g dark chocolate chips
100g dark chocolate, roughly chopped
3 peppermint candy canes, finely chopped or crushed

Steps:

  • Melt the butter in a pan, leave to cool for a few minutes, then pour into a large bowl. Whisk in both sugars and the egg until combined.
  • Use a wooden spoon to mix in the flour and baking powder until the mixture comes together into a dough. Beat in the peppermint extract, then fold in the chocolate chips. Wrap well and chill for 1 hr.
  • Heat the oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Divide the cookie dough into 16 pieces (about 45g each), and roll each piece into a ball using your hands. Arrange the dough balls on two baking trays lined with baking parchment, well spaced apart, and press them down slightly. Bake for 10 mins, then remove the trays from the oven and tap sharply on a work surface to flatten the cookies. Return to the oven and repeat this after 2 mins, then again after another 2 mins (they should bake for 14 mins in total). Leave to cool completely on the trays.
  • Melt the chopped chocolate in a heatproof bowl over a pan of simmering water, or in 15-second bursts in the microwave, stirring between each burst. Line a baking tray with baking parchment. Dip one half of each cookie into the melted chocolate, place on the lined tray and sprinkle with candy cane pieces. Transfer the tray to the fridge and chill for 30 mins to set.

GREEN MINT CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES



Green Mint Chocolate Chip Cookies image

I got this recipe in my e-mail from a Betty Crocker mailing, and it was a 2010 prize-winning recipe. The cookie dough is tinted green, so they are great for St. Patrick's Day or a holiday tray.

Provided by Greeny4444

Categories     Drop Cookies

Time 45m

Yield 36 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 (17 1/2 ounce) sugar cookie mix (the 1 lb. 1.5 oz Betty crocker pouch)
1/2 cup butter, softened (1 stick)
1/4-1/2 teaspoon peppermint extract (NOT mint, mint is like a toothpaste smell or taste)
6 -8 drops green food coloring
1 egg
1 cup creme de menthe baking chips (such as Andes baking chips)
1 cup semisweet chocolate chunk

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  • In a large bowl, stir cookie mix, butter, extract, food color and egg until soft dough forms.
  • Stir in creme de menthe baking chips and chocolate chunks.
  • Using a small cookie scoop or teaspoon, drop dough 2 inches apart on a parchment-lined cookie sheet.
  • Bake 8 to 10 minutes or until set.
  • Cool 3 minutes on the cookie sheet, then transfer to a wire rack.
  • Serve warm or cool completely. Store tightly covered at room temperature.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients: The better the quality of your ingredients, the better your cookies will taste. Look for high-quality chocolate chips, butter, and flour.
  • Chill the dough before baking: This will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
  • Don't overmix the dough: Overmixing the dough will make the cookies tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the cookies at the right temperature: The ideal temperature for baking chocolate chip cookies is 350 degrees Fahrenheit (175 degrees Celsius). If you bake the cookies at a higher temperature, they will be overcooked and dry.
  • Let the cookies cool completely before serving: This will allow the flavors to develop and the cookies to set properly.

Conclusion:

Green mint chocolate chip cookies are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion. These cookies are sure to be a hit with your friends and family. So next time you're looking for a sweet treat, give these green mint chocolate chip cookies a try.
