CHOCOLATE PEPPERMINT COOKIES



Chocolate Peppermint Cookies image

This recipe reminds me of eating candy canes, fudge and brownies during the holidays. That's why it's one of my favorites. Sometimes I even crush a candy cane and sprinkle it over the top before the glaze sets. Most of the time I ignore the measurement for the mint and just add as much as I like. This way everyone can add their own personal touch to these cookies.

2 cups all-purpose flour
3/4 cups unsweetened cocoa powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, room temperature
1 cup packed light brown sugar
3/4 cup sugar

Tips:

  • Use high-quality chocolate: The quality of the chocolate you use will greatly impact the flavor of your skillet cookie. Use a high-quality semisweet or bittersweet chocolate for the best results.
  • Don't overmix the dough: Overmixing the dough will result in a tough, chewy cookie. Mix the dough just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Chill the dough before baking: Chilling the dough for at least 30 minutes before baking will help the cookie to hold its shape and prevent it from spreading too much.
  • Bake the cookie in a hot skillet: A hot skillet will help to create a crispy outer layer and a gooey center.
  • Don't overbake the cookie: The cookie is done baking when the edges are golden brown and the center is set. If you overbake the cookie, it will become dry and crumbly.
  • Let the cookie cool slightly before serving: Let the cookie cool for a few minutes before serving so that it has a chance to set. If you serve the cookie too soon, it may be too soft and gooey.

Conclusion:

This chocolate peppermint skillet cookie is the perfect dessert for any occasion. It is easy to make, delicious, and sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it. So next time you are looking for a special treat, give this chocolate peppermint skillet cookie a try.
