Filled with Oreo pieces, Andes peppermint bits, and chocolate chips, these Peppermint Crunch Cookies will delight all chocolate mint lovers, and are just perfect for Christmas!
Hooray, it’s peppermint season! One of my very favorite things about this time of year is all of the peppermint foods that show up in stores just for the holidays.
I have an addiction to all things chocolate and mint, so I love looking for ways I can incorporate them into my baking.
I made these cookies last year, and they are phenomenal! With Oreos, peppermint bits, and chocolate chips, how could they not be?
The peppermint Andes bits look like crushed up candy canes, and they make the cookies just look like Christmas! I borrowed an idea from these cookies and added some crushed up Oreos to the dough. Every bite is packed with yumminess!
The cookies are soft and chewy, and it’s fun biting into chunks of Oreos. My family loved these so much I actually had to make a second batch because they ate them all before I had a chance to take photos. (It was technically just a half batch, but still.) These are some seriously yummy chocolate chip cookies!
For an easy Christmas neighbor gift, just wrap a few of these cookies up in a cellophane bag and attach a Christmas gift tag. Your neighbors will love you!

My favorite cookies ever!! Easy and makes a lot!!
Glad you love them! It’s always nice to have extra cookies to share, right? 🙂
Made these cookies but didn’t find the Andes peppermint crunch baking chips. I usually get them at Walmart. I used the Ghirardelli chips instead. I highly recommend using the Andes brand. They were good but lacked color Andes! Is better
Thanks for the tip!
