Ingredients
Making your own chocolate mint filled cookies is fun and easy. To get started, you’ll need:
- 1/2 cup (1 stick) butter, softened
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 cup cocoa powder
- 1/2 cup mint chocolate chips
- 1/4 cup white chocolate chips
- 4 ounces dark chocolate, chopped
Instructions
Once you have gathered your ingredients, it’s time to make the cookies! Here’s how:
- Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, cream together the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the egg and vanilla.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, salt, baking soda, and cocoa powder.
- Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix until just combined. Stir in the mint and white chocolate chips.
- Roll the dough into tablespoon-sized balls and place them on the prepared baking sheets. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are set.
- Allow the cookies to cool for 5 minutes before removing them from the baking sheets. Transfer the cookies to a wire rack to cool completely.
- To fill the cookies, melt the dark chocolate in a small bowl in the microwave, stirring every 30 seconds until smooth. Place a teaspoon of melted chocolate on the bottom of one cookie and then top with a second cookie. Press lightly to spread the chocolate to the edges. Repeat with the remaining cookies.
