How to Make Double Chocolate Cookies Mint Chocolate Variation

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter and 1 ¾ cups granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Beat in 2 large eggs and 2 teaspoons vanilla extract (or 1 teaspoon vanilla extract and 1 teaspoon peppermint extract for the mint variation).
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together 3 cups all-purpose flour, ¾ cup unsweetened cocoa powder, 1 teaspoon baking soda, and ½ teaspoon salt.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  6. Stir in 2 cups semisweet chocolate chips (or 2 cups Andes Mint Chocolate Baking Pieces for the mint variation).
  7. Drop rounded tablespoons of cookie dough onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving 2 inches between each cookie.
  8. Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are set and the centers are still slightly soft.
  9. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for 2 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
  10. Enjoy your delicious Double Chocolate Mint Cookies!
