How To Make chocolate mint chip cookies

  • Step 1
    Preheat oven to 325 degrees F.
  • Step 2
    In a double boiler over medium-high heat, melt chopped chocolate and butter until smooth. Set aside to cool one minute.
  • Step 3
    In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
  • Step 4
    At medium speed, combine sugar, eggs, and vanilla in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment. Once mixed thoroughly, slowly add chocolate and butter mixture, being sure chocolate mixture has cooled enough.
  • Step 5
    Reduce speed to low and gradually add flour mixture in three batches. Fold in mint chips by hand. Chill dough in the refrigerator at least 30 minutes before baking.
  • Step 6
    Using a 1 in. cookie scoop, place dough balls on a baking sheet lined with parchment or a silicone baking mat. Bake until cookies have sre still a little fluffy and cracked on top, about 15 minutes. Let cool on baking sheets on wire racks. Store at room temperature in an airtight container up to five days.
