I love Chocolate and peppermint ..It just says Christmas to me. I picked up some Andes peppermint crunch baking chips and never found a recipe that I really liked. I adapted this recipe from my Oh My Mocha cookies. These cookies are easy to make and turned out very soft and cake like. Just the right balance of chocolate and peppermint .
