CHOCOLATE JUNIOR MINT COOKIES

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.

Step 2

Cream together the butter, granulated sugar and brown sugar in an electric mixer.

Step 3

Add the egg and vanilla. Mix until light in color and creamy.

Step 4

Add in the dry ingredients (flour, cocoa, baking soda and salt), mix into the dough. Mix until completely combined. The dough will be soft.

Step 5

Fold in the mini chocolate chips.

Step 6

Scoop or roll the cookie dough out into equal sized balls. Arrange on a cookie sheet. Add a few extra chocolate chips on top of the dough, if desired.

Step 7

Bake at 350° for 7-9 minutes or until the cookies are puffy and no longer glossy on top.

Step 8

Remove from oven and immediately press 2-3 Junior Mints onto the top of each cookie. Allow the cookies to cool on the cookie sheet.
