Ingredients
- 1 c. unsalted butter, softened
- 1 c. brown sugar
- 3/4 c. sugar
- 2 tsp. vanilla extract
- 1 egg
- 1 egg yolk
- 2 3/4 c. all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp. cornstarch
- 1 1/4 tsp. baking soda
- 1 1/4 tsp. salt
- 2/3 c. Andes mints, chopped about 21 mints
- 1/2 c. mint chips
- 1/4 c. semisweet or bittersweet chocolate chunks about 2 ounces
Instructions
- In the bowl of a stand mixer (or a large mixing bowl with a hand mixer), beat together butter, sugars and vanilla for 1 minute. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing in between additions.
- In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together flour, cornstarch, baking soda and salt.
- Turn mixing speed to low and gradually add in the dry ingredients. Beat until just combined or until a soft dough forms. Fold in the mints, mint chips, and chocolate chunks with a spatula.
- Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
- To bake the cookies, using a standard size cookie scoop (approximately 1.5 tbsp.) to form balls of dough. Place onto the prepared sheets, leaving at least 2 inches in between.
- Place in the oven and bake for 10-12 minutes, rotating the sheet half way through the baking process. Remove from oven when cookies are golden brown in color around the edges. Let cookies cool on pan for 3-4 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
