My Culinary Trial Room

I started with typing, "it is spring here" last week. Then I got lazy and then things changed on the weather front. Yes it was sunny and the weather was in its 50s last week but then all of a sudden it started snowing yesterday and there was snow accumulation. The whole event was kinda depressing. So off I went into a slumber. A deep slumber in which blogging was the last thing on my mind. But then I had to give in, isn't that what we bloggers do all the time.

So here I am with these outrageously delicious mint chocolate chip cookies. If mint is your thing, then you sure have to give this a go. I love anything with a hint of mint. That refreshing flavor it gives is something that you would find addicting, if well, mint is your thing. If you do not have access to mint chocolate chips, then use regular chocolate chips and if you can lay yours hands on pure mint extract then add 1/4 tsp of that and increase by your personal preference.

~*What U Need*~
Unsalted butter - 1/4 cup, room temp
Brown sugar - 6 tbsp
Granulated sugar - 1/4 cup
Baking soda - 1/2 tsp
Baking powder - 1/2 tsp
Vanilla extract - 1 tsp
Egg - 1, room temp
Andes creme de menthe baking chips - 5 oz, 1/2 a bag
All purpose flour - 1 1/3 cups, sifted

How I Made it:
Preheat the oven to 350F. Line cookie sheets with parchment paper. Beat the butter until pale and fluffy. Add the sugars and beat until light and fluffy. Add the egg and mix until combined.

Sift together the all purpose flour, baking soda and baking powder. Add the dry ingredients and stir well. Add the chocolate chips and stir until combined. Drop tablespoons of dough on the cookie sheet and bake for 10-12 mins or until it slightly browned on the edges.
