Chocolate PeppermintForever my favorite. After Eight CookiesChocolate Peppermint Fudge Cookies170g bittersweet chocolate (70% cocoa) Melt together chocolate and butter. In a separate bowl, beat eggs, salt and vanilla for 30 seconds at medium speed. Gradually add sugars while mixing. Increase beating speed to high and beat until pale and thick, ~5 mins. The mixture should fall back onto itself in ribbons when lifted with the beater. Gradually mixed in butter and chocolate mixture on low speed. Mix in peppermint. Sift together flour and baking soda then fold into the batter. Batter will be runny, like cake batter. Refrigerate for 30 mins. so that it's slightly firm, but spoonable. Form cookie balls with ~ tsp. of batter. Bake for ~7 mins at 160*. Do not overbake! Peppermint Chip Chocolate Crinkle CookiesMake peppermint chips by melting ~75-85g of white chocolate and adding a few drops of peppermint oil. Spread on a plate, chill in fridge, then chop into chips when cool. Mint Brownies140g unsalted butter Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line an 8x8-inch baking pan with parchment paper.
