Ingredients
  

  • ½ cup salted butter softened to room temperature
  • ½ cup white sugar
  • ½ cup brown sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 ⅓ cups all purpose flour 5.8 ounces
  • cup cocoa powder
  • ½ tsp baking soda
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • 1 ½ cups mint baking chips I use Guittard

Instructions
 

  • Let your butter sit out until it is soft. Line cookie sheets with silicone liners, or spray with cooking spray. Preheat your oven to 350°.
  • Beat the butter and sugars with an electric mixer for 2-3 minutes, or until light and creamy. Beat in the egg and vanilla.
  • Whisk together the flour, cocoa, baking soda, and salt. (Sift if your cocoa is lumpy.)
  • Add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients and stir just until flour is moistened. Fold in about a cup of the mint chips.
  • Roll dough by tablespoons into balls and place on prepared baking sheet at least two inches apart. Bake at 350 degrees for 9-11 minutes, or until barely set in the middle.
  • While cookies are still hot, press a few mint chips into the top of each cookie.
  • After 3-5 minutes, transfer the cookies to a wire rack to cool completely.
