Instructions

First, preheat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a baking pan with parchment paper.

In the bowl of a stand mixer, add cold butter, sugar and brown sugar. Stir on high for 2 to 3 minutes, until no clumps of butter remain.

Add in egg and vanilla. Stir to combine.

Then, add in peppermint extract, flour, cocoa powder, and baking soda. Stir until a thick dough forms.

Fold in chocolate chips and chopped candy canes.

Use an ice cream scooper to scoop balls of dough onto lined pan.

Bake for 8 to 9 minutes or until cookies are set, but still look soft.

Finally, remove from oven. Allow cookies to cool on pan for 10 minutes. Then carefully remove to a cooling rack. Sprinkle with extra chopped candy canes if desired.
