How to Make Polka Dot Cookies
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a double boiler or heat-safe bowl set over a pan of simmering water, melt 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter and 12 ounces semisweet chocolate chips, stirring until smooth and melted. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
- In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup granulated sugar and 1/2 cup packed brown sugar with 2 large eggs and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract until light and fluffy.
- Gradually beat in the cooled melted chocolate mixture until just combined.
- Gently fold in the dry ingredients until just incorporated. Be careful not to overmix.
- Stir in 1 cup green mint chips.
- Cover the bowl and chill the dough for at least 10-15 minutes, or until slightly firm. This helps prevent the cookies from spreading too much.
- Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches between each cookie.
- Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are set and the centers are still slightly soft. (Cooking time may vary slightly depending on your oven.)
- Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
