Ingredients

  • ½ cup unsalted butter (1 stick) softened
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • ¾ cup brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 egg yolk
  • cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ¾ teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 cup mint chips
  • ¾ cup chocolate chips
  • ¼ cup chopped chocolate bar for extra chunks

Instructions

Prepare the Oven and Baking Sheet:

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
  • Line baking sheets with parchment paper or a nonstick baking mat.

Make the Cookie Dough:

  • In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
  • Add the egg, egg yolk, and vanilla extract, and mix until well combined.

Combine Dry Ingredients:

  • In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, unsweetened cocoa powder, salt, baking soda, and baking powder.

Combine and Fold:

  • Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture using a hand mixer or spatula. Mix until a thick dough forms.
  • Fold in the mint chips, chocolate chips, and chopped chocolate bar.

Bake the Cookies:

  • Scoop heaping tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
  • Bake for 10–12 minutes, or until the edges are set and the centers look slightly underbaked (they’ll continue cooking as they cool).
  • Cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack.
