How to Make Chocolate Chip Mint Cookies

  1. Preheat oven to 175°C (350°F). Cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) softened butter, ¾ cup granulated sugar, and ½ cup packed brown sugar until light and fluffy.
  2. Beat in 2 large eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
  3. Stir in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract and 2 tablespoons peppermint extract.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, and ½ teaspoon salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  5. Stir in 2 cups chocolate chips.
  6. Roll the dough into 1-inch balls and place them on ungreased baking sheets lined with parchment paper, leaving about 2 inches between each cookie.
  7. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
