Tips:

  • For the best flavor, use high-quality peppermint extract. Look for one that is made with real peppermint oil, not artificial flavoring.
  • If you don't have peppermint extract, you can use 1 teaspoon of peppermint oil. Be sure to dilute it with a little bit of milk or water before adding it to the batter, as it is very concentrated.
  • For a more intense peppermint flavor, add a few drops of peppermint oil to the melted chocolate before adding it to the batter.
  • If you like your cookies chewy, bake them for a shorter amount of time. For crispier cookies, bake them for a longer amount of time.
  • Let the cookies cool completely before frosting them. This will help the frosting to set properly.

Conclusion:

Peppermint brownie cookies are a delicious and festive treat that are perfect for any occasion. They are easy to make and can be enjoyed by people of all ages. With their rich chocolate flavor and refreshing peppermint taste, these cookies are sure to be a hit at your next party or gathering.
