Prep: 15 minutes
Bake: 11 minutes
Chill Time: 1 day
Servings: 30 Cookies

Ingredients

  • 225 g Unsalted butter 1 cup, room temperature
  • 100 g Granulated sugar ½ cup
  • 170 g Dark brown sugar ¾ cup + 1 tbsp
  • 2 large Eggs room temperature
  • 2 tsp Vanilla
  • 280 g AP flour 2⅓ cup
  • 1 tsp Sea salt
  • 1 tsp Baking soda
  • 60 g Chopped semi-sweet chocolate ~¼ cup
  • 264 g Andes Mints, chopped 2 boxes

Instructions

  • In a medium bowl, add flour, salt and baking soda and whisk together. Set aside.
  • In the bowl of your stand mixer with paddle attached, or a large bowl and your hand mixer, add softened butter, brown sugar and granulated sugar. Cream the butter and sugar together until lightened in color and a creamy fluffy texture (2-4 minutes).
  • Add your eggs, and mix until well incorporated and dough is creamy and smooth.
  • Add in your vanilla and mix in.
  • Add in your dry ingredients and mix with a spoon or rubber spatula until cookie dough comes together. Do not overmix your dough, as this will create a tough textured cookie.
  • Add in your chopped mints and chopped chocolate and stir throughout the cookie dough so evenly incorporated.
  • Chill your dough. I personally, find it easier to scoop cookie dough onto a parchment lined cookie sheet - dough balls can be very close together - and chill the dough pre scooped. However you can chill the dough in the bowl as well, dough will just be a little more difficult to scoop out of the refrigerator. Either way, cover and chill dough for at least 30 minutes, preferably for 24 hours.
  • Preheat your oven to 350°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Bake your cookies with about 3 inches between them on the center rack for 11 minutes. Cookies will be just set when coming out of the oven. Let them sit for about 1 minute on the cookie sheet and transfer to a wire rack to cool.
  • Store cookies in an airtight container for up to a week. Enjoy!
