Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or a silicone mat. Set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, beat together the butter, 1/2 cup of powdered sugar, and the vanilla until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes.
- Add in flour and salt and mix until combined. Then stir in the Andes peppermint baking chips until just incorporated.
- You can chill the dough for about an hour, if you want a more ball-like shape to the cookies. (If you don't chill the dough, your cookies will be flatter.) Portion the cookie dough into 1-inch balls. Place the cookie dough balls 1 ½ inches apart on the prepared baking sheets.
- Bake for 9 -10 minutes, or until set, watching carefully so bottoms do not burn.
- Remove from oven and allow cookies to cool on the baking sheet for about 10 minutes. Don't move them - this helps keep the cookies from falling apart.
- While the cookies are still warm, roll them in the remaining 1 cup of powdered sugar until coated. Then place the coated cookies on a wire rack to cool completely.
