Description
A delightful fusion of traditional chocolate chip cookies infused with seasonal flavors, featuring a combination of semi-sweet and white chocolate, enhanced by crushed peppermint.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 3/4 cup brown sugar, packed
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup white chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup crushed peppermint candies
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar for about 3-5 minutes until light and fluffy. Add in the eggs, one at a time, blending well after each addition, then stir in the vanilla extract.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to your wet mixture, mixing just until combined. Fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips, white chocolate chips, and crushed peppermint candies.
- Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop dough onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Bake for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden.
- Allow cookies to cool on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
Ensure your butter is at room temperature for smooth blending. Store cookies in an airtight container for up to a week or freeze for longer freshness.
