Peppermint Hot Chocolate Cookies image

We love the intense chocolate and mint flavors in this chocolate cookie. It really is like hot chocolate in cookie form. They're soft and chewy. We highly recommend enjoying them warm out of the oven while the marshmallows are at prime gooeyness. Chocolaty-minty goodness.

I had some trouble finding peppermint extract, but I was able to find it at a specialty grocery store.
