Double Chocolate Andes Mint Cookies Recipes

DOUBLE CHOCOLATE ANDES MINT COOKIES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350˚ F.
• Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats. In a large bowl, cream the butter and both sugars together well until fluffy. Add in egg and vanilla extract.
• In a separate large bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt. Add the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, one cup at a time, with a rubber spatula until just incorporated. The dough will look and feel a little dry, this is when you mix in the milk and fold in the Andes baking chips and chocolate chips.
• Let dough chill for a minimum of 1 hour to overnight.
• Using a small cookie scoop or a spoon to roll about 2 tablespoon of dough into balls, place cookie dough on the baking sheets.
• Bake 10 minutes. Let cool on the baking sheets for about 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
• Keep in an airtight container for 3-4 days.

• Stir in the chocolate chips and mint pieces.
• Using a 2" cookie scoop, create about 16 to 18 cookies. Bake for 7 to 10 minutes. I like the cookies to be slightly underdone, so I bake at 7 minutes. Let the cookies rest for about 10 minutes before digging in.
