Instructions
- Place sugars, eggs, butter, and peppermint extract in bowl of stand mixer. Mix on med-high speed until light and fluffy, about 4-5 min. Add eggs in one at a time, mixing just until incorporated.
- In separate bowl, combine dry ingredients: flour, baking soda, baking powder, corn starch, cocoa powder, and salt. Whisk to combine well.
- Fold dry ingredients into wet batter. Gently add in mint chips and semi-sweet chocolate chips. Form into dough ball, cover, and chill for 30 minutes or more.
- Preheat oven to 350F, with rack on lower middle position.
- Form 1.5 tablespoon-sized dough balls and place 2 inches apart on parchment-lined baking sheet. Bake 10-11 minutes*. Cookies may seem underdone, but will set nicely upon cooling.

- If you can't find Andes mint chocolate chips, you can use regular Andes Creme de Menthe Thins, roughly chopped.
- Dough can be made up to a week ahead of time, wrapped, and chilled until ready to bake; be sure to give it a bit of time to sit at room temperature so it will be easier to form dough balls.
- Bake 10 minutes for a slightly chewier/softer cookie. Bake 11 minutes for slightly crisper edges. Actual bake time will vary, depending on oven.
- Baked cookies will keep nicely in an airtight container at moderate room temperature for several days. They can be frozen for up to a month.
