These Mint Chocolate Delight Cookies are a refreshing twist on the classic chocolate chip cookie, featuring a hint of mint and a rich chocolate flavor.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Ensure the oven is fully preheated before baking for even cooking.
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the granulated sugar and unsalted butter until light and fluffy.
Use room temperature butter for easier mixing.
Finely chop the fresh mint leaves and add them to the bowl along with the egg. Mix until well combined.
Chop the mint leaves finely to distribute the flavor evenly.
Gradually mix in the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt until a dough forms.
Add the dry ingredients in batches to avoid clumping.
Fold in the mint-flavored chocolate chips until evenly distributed.
Gently fold to avoid breaking the chips.
Drop tablespoon-sized portions of dough onto an ungreased baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Use a cookie scoop for uniform sizes.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.
Keep an eye on the cookies to prevent overbaking.
Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 2 minutes before transferring to a cooling rack to cool completely.
Cooling on the rack prevents sogginess.
Serve the cookies with your favorite beverage and enjoy!
Pair with milk or tea for a delightful treat.
