Ingredients

• 1 2/3 C all-purpose flour
• 1/3 C unsweetened cocoa powder
• 1 tsp baking soda
• 1/2 tsp fine sea salt
• 2 sticks butter, room temperature, softened
• 1/4 C granulated sugar
• 1/2 C packed light brown sugar
• 1 egg, room temperature
• 2 1/2 packed tablespoons Fresh Mint, chopped fine
• 1/2 C semisweet chocolate chips
• 1/2 C dark chocolate chunks or chips

Preparation

• Preheat the oven to 375 F and line cookie sheet with parchment paper.
• Sift together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda and salt.
• In a separate bowl, cream the butter and both sugars together until light and fluffy.
• Add in the egg and mix until smooth. Stir in the finely chopped mint leaves.
• Add the dry ingredients in two steps, scraping down the bowl after each addition. Mix until just combined, don't over mix.
• Stir in the chocolate chips by hand.
• Scoop by the rounded tablespoon onto parchment lined cookie sheets. Leave a good amount of space, at least 2 inches between cookie dough balls because these may spread a bit.
• Bake about 8-9 minutes, removing from the oven when the cookies appear just set. For a soft cookie, make sure to not over-bake.
