Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper. Using electric mixer, beat butter and sugar in large bowl until well blended. Beat in eggs and peppermint extract. Add flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, baking powder and salt and beat until well blended. Form dough into 1-inch balls. Place 2 inches apart on prepared baking sheets. Flatten balls slightly to 1 1/2-inch rounds.
- Bake cookies until edges begin to firm but center still appears soft, about 13 minutes. Cool on baking sheets 5 minutes. Transfer cookies to racks and cool completely. (Cookies can be prepared up to 5 days ahead. Store in airtight container at room temperature.)
Tips:
- To make the best mint cocoa mix, start with high-quality ingredients. Use real cocoa powder, not a mix that contains added sugar or other fillers. The best cocoa powders will have a rich, chocolatey flavor that will shine through in the final product.
- Use fresh mint leaves for the best flavor. Dried mint leaves can be used in a pinch, but they will not have the same intense flavor as fresh mint.
- If you don't have a blender, you can grind the mint leaves in a mortar and pestle or use a food processor.
- Store the mint cocoa mix in an airtight container in a cool, dry place. It will keep for up to 3 months.
Conclusion:
Mint cocoa mix is a delicious and refreshing drink that can be enjoyed year-round. It's easy to make and can be customized to your liking. Whether you like it rich and chocolatey or light and minty, there's a mint cocoa mix recipe out there for you.
