Ingredients
- 6 tbsp Unsalted Butter
- 4 oz Semisweet Chocolate, Chopped
- 2/3 cup Light Brown Sugar
- 1/4 cup Granulated Sugar
- 1 Large Egg
- 1 Large Egg Yolk
- 1 tsp Vanilla Extract
- 1/4 tsp Peppermint Extract
- 1 cup All-Purpose Flour
- 1/4 cup Unsweetened Cocoa Powder
- 1/2 tsp Baking Powder
- 1/2 tsp Fine Salt
- 3/4 cup Mint Chocolate Pieces
Instructions
- Melt the butter and semisweet chocolate together over low heat, stirring until smooth. Remove from the heat and cool for 10 minutes.
- Whisk the brown sugar, granulated sugar, egg, egg yolk, vanilla, and peppermint extract into the cooled chocolate mixture until glossy.
- Add the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt. Mix just until combined, then fold in two-thirds of the mint chocolate pieces.
- Refrigerate the dough for 20 minutes. Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 350 F and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Divide the chilled dough into 12 portions and arrange them at least 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheets. Press the remaining mint chocolate pieces onto the tops.
- Bake for 9 to 11 minutes, until the edges are set and the centers still look slightly underbaked. Cool on the baking sheets for 10 minutes before transferring to a cooling rack.
