How to Make Catsie’s Holiday Peppermint Chocolate Chip Cookies
- Cream together butter and sugar
- Add egg, vanilla, and peppermint oil and blend.
- In separate bowl combine flour, cornstarch, soda, and salt. Sift and add to creamed mixture. Stir till blended.
- Stir in chips and nuts.
- Make balls of dough using 2 Tbsp size cookie scoop. Roll each in hand to ball shape and place all on one cookie sheet. Cover with plastic wrap and chill for at least one hour.
- (At this point chilled cookies can be placed in plastic freezer bag and freeze. Thaw 20 minutes before baking.)
- Placed chilled dough balls 2 inches apart on baking sheet.
- Bake 15 to 18 minutes at 325 degrees or until browned and a bit crispy around the edges
- Sometimes I add crushed up hard peppermint candies instead of adding the oil. Just crush and measure with the nuts
