Andes Mint and Chocolate Chip Cookies

Using the same cookie dough foundation previously published here, I made a few edits to accommodate an inviting wintery flavor.

ANDES MINT & CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES 

prep time: 15 MINUTES

cook time: 6-8 MINUTES

INGREDIENTS:

  • 3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon sea salt
  • 2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 cup salted butter, at room temperature
  • 1 cup packed brown sugar
  • 2/3 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon mint extract
  • Chopped Andes Mints
  • Milk Chocolate Chips

DIRECTIONS:

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  2. In medium bowl, whisk the flour, salt, and baking soda together. Set aside.
  3. Cream the butter and sugars together until creamy and smooth. Add in the eggs and extracts.
  4. Slowly mix in the flour, until combined. Stir in desired amount of Andes Mints and Chocolate Chips
  5. Use cookie dough scoop to form small ball, place on baking sheet and bake for 6-8 minutes (I cook for 7 minutes for a doughy effect). Remove from the oven and let cool on cookie sheet if you want it to continue cooking a little longer, or immediately transfer to foil lined counter-top.  I don’t cool these bad boys on a wire rack as I want the maximum doughy gooey effect.
