These Mint Chocolate Bliss Cookies are a delightful twist on classic chocolate cookies, featuring a rich chocolate base and a refreshing mint topping.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Preheating ensures even baking from the start.
In a mixing bowl, cream together the butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
Creaming the butter and sugar properly ensures a soft cookie texture.
Beat in the egg until fully incorporated.
Ensure the egg is at room temperature for better mixing.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, salt, and cocoa powder.
Sifting the dry ingredients can help avoid lumps.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
Do not overmix to keep the cookies tender.
Fold in the chocolate chips.
Use a spatula to gently fold in the chips evenly.
Scoop the dough onto a parchment-lined baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
A cookie scoop ensures uniform cookie sizes.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are set.
Avoid overbaking to keep the centers soft.
Remove from the oven and immediately place a mint candy on top of each cookie.
The residual heat will melt the candy slightly for easy spreading.
Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a cooling rack.
Cooling on the sheet helps the cookies firm up.
Serve the cookies once cooled and enjoy the delightful mint-chocolate flavor.
Pair with a glass of milk for a classic treat.
