Ingredients

Servings
  • 1 ¾ cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 ¼ cups cocoa powder unsweetened
  • 2 teaspoons baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt
  • ½ cup butter softened (1 stick, unsalted
  • ¾ cup yogurt plain, Greek
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • ¾ cup dark brown sugar
  • 2 egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract pure
  • 12 oz. bittersweet chocolate chips 1 bag / 2 cups
  • ¾ cup Peppermint 12 regularly sized candy canes, or candy canes

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper, and set aside.
  2. Sift the flour, cocoa, baking soda and salt into a medium bowl. Whisk to combine. Set aside.
  3. In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream together the butter, Greek yogurt and sugars until fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
  4. Add eggs and vanilla extract to the wet ingredients. Mix until combined, about 1-2 minutes.
  5. Add the flour mixture, and beat on low speed, until just combined. Do not overmix.
  6. Fold in the chocolate chips and candy cane pieces with a rubber spatula.
  7. Use a 1.5-tablespoon cookie scooper to scoop cookie dough balls. Place them on the baking sheet about 3" apart from one another so they can spread in the oven.
  8. Bake for about 12 minutes or until puffed and slightly cracked.
  9. Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before enjoying.

Notes

  • These cookies store well in an airtight container at room temperature or in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
  • Please note that I used a combination of 1 cup dark chocolate chips and 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips in this recipe. You may use the chocolate chips you like best.
