Minty Chocolate Chip Cookies image

These taste like a hybrid of a chocolate chip cookie and a Girl Scouts Thin Mint®. I like to make these the week leading up to Christmas as a change from traditional holiday cookies.

Time 50m

Yield 35

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 cup butter, softened
1 cup white sugar
¾ cup packed light brown sugar
1 tablespoon peppermint extract
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
½ teaspoon salt
2 eggs
2 cups all-purpose flour
½ cup cocoa powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 ⅔ cups mint chocolate chips

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
  • Beat butter, white sugar, brown sugar, peppermint extract, vanilla extract, and salt together in a bowl using an electric mixer until smooth and creamy. Beat eggs into butter mixture until well incorporated.
  • Whisk flour, cocoa powder, and baking soda together in a bowl; gradually add to creamed butter mixture, beating until dough is well blended. Fold chocolate chips into dough. Drop dough by rounded teaspoons onto a baking sheet.

These cookies are a great way to use up leftover mint extract.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my cookies turned out flat and crispy. They didn't taste bad, but they weren't what I was expecting.

These cookies were a bit too minty for my taste, but my kids loved them.

I'm not a big fan of mint, but these cookies are amazing! The mint flavor is subtle and doesn't overpower the chocolate.

I love how easy these cookies are to make. I didn't have any mint extract on hand, so I used a drop of peppermint oil instead. They turned out great!
