Ingredients
- ½ cup butter 1 stick, softened, salted
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- ½ cup light brown sugar packed
- 1 egg large
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 ¾ cups all-purpose flour
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ⅔ cup chocolate chopped, ANDES brand chocolates
- ½ cup chocolate chips semi-sweet
- ½ cup fudge baking chunks mint-flavored
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit and line two large baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a large mixing bowl, cream the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy with a hand or stand mixer.
- Add the egg and vanilla and beat just until creamy.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour and baking soda.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing with a dough hook, if possible, until just combined.
- Fold in the chopped mint chocolate candy, chocolate chips, and mint chips, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.
- Use a 1 ½ Tablespoon cookie scoop to form dough balls and place them onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
- Bake for 7-11 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden. The centers may appear slightly undercooked but will firm up as they cool.
- Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely before serving.
