- Position oven rack in the lower third of the oven.
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).

- Lightly flour a work surface.
- Roll out the dough to 1/4-inch thickness.

- Stir until chocolate is melted and smooth.
- Whisk in 1 teaspoon peppermint extract. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or until firm.
- Using a 1/2-ounce cookie scoop or tablespoon, place the chocolate mixture onto the flat side of 12 cookies.
