Our Latest Favorite Cookies - Thanks Tia Su!

The original recipe for the mint chocolate chips comes from Mollie Katzen's Still Life with Menu, but I've adapted it a little. These cookies also freeze very well, and make great ice-cream sandwiches.

Double Chocolate-Mint Cookies

1 1/2 sticks (3/4 cup/6 oz) butter
1/2 cup (packed) brown sugar
1/2 cup sugar
1 egg
1 tsp vanilla
1 tsp peppermint extract
1 1/2 cups flour
1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp salt
1 cup chocolate chips

Preheat oven to 350F. Cream butter and sugars. Beat in egg and extracts. In a separate bowl, mix dry ingredients together. Stir flour mixture into butter, then add chips. Drop spoonfuls onto lightly greased cookie sheet, and bake 10-12 minutes.
