Steps:

• Start by preheating the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Then, line a baking sheet with parchment paper or spray with non-stick cooking spray, set aside.
• Begin by creaming together the sugar and butter, in a large bowl, until nice and fluffy.
• Then, add in the egg, sour cream and dry pudding mix, stir well to combine.
• Next, in a separate small bowl, combine the flour, salt and baking soda.
• After that, incorporate the flour mixture into the butter and pudding mixture and stir until well combined.
• Now, add the mint extract and food coloring until desired color is achieved.
• Lastly, add in the chocolate chips. I used 3/4 cup chocolate chunks, 3/4 cup regular chocolate chips and 1/2 cup Andes baking bits. Any combination is wonderful, but note that while the Andes mint baking pieces add an incredible flavor, they kind of disappear in the cookies. So add them in addition to the 11/2 cups chocolate chips, if you opt to put them in!
• Start dropping the cookie dough by the rounded tablespoonfuls onto the prepared baking sheet.
• Then, bake for 10 minutes.
• When done baking, transfer to a cooling rack.
• Serve fresh and warm, enjoy!

MINT CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES

Steps:

• Melt the butter in a pan, leave to cool for a few minutes, then pour into a large bowl. Whisk in both sugars and the egg until combined.
• Use a wooden spoon to mix in the flour and baking powder until the mixture comes together into a dough. Beat in the peppermint extract, then fold in the chocolate chips. Wrap well and chill for 1 hr.
• Heat the oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Divide the cookie dough into 16 pieces (about 45g each), and roll each piece into a ball using your hands. Arrange the dough balls on two baking trays lined with baking parchment, well spaced apart, and press them down slightly. Bake for 10 mins, then remove the trays from the oven and tap sharply on a work surface to flatten the cookies. Return to the oven and repeat this after 2 mins, then again after another 2 mins (they should bake for 14 mins in total). Leave to cool completely on the trays.
• Melt the chopped chocolate in a heatproof bowl over a pan of simmering water, or in 15-second bursts in the microwave, stirring between each burst. Line a baking tray with baking parchment. Dip one half of each cookie into the melted chocolate, place on the lined tray and sprinkle with candy cane pieces. Transfer the tray to the fridge and chill for 30 mins to set.
