Preparation Steps

• Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
• In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
• Add the peppermint extract and mix until combined.
• Gradually add the flour and cocoa powder and mix until just combined.
• Stir in the mini chocolate chips until evenly distributed.
• Roll the dough into 1-inch balls and place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
• Flatten each ball slightly with the palm of your hand.
• Bake for 10-12 minutes, until set but not browned. Cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
