Chocolate Peppermint Shortbread Cookies

December 4, 2013 By Erin Kennedy 1 Comment

Happy National Cookie Day! That is right, it is all about the cookies today! Here is a yummy cookie from Wendy over at The Monday Box that is perfect for the upcoming holidays, or just to eat anytime because mint and chocolate are a pair made in heaven.

If you are interested in having one of your posts featured, just click here to submit a recipe, and let me know which recipe you would like to share!


These Chocolate Peppermint shortbread cookies  are made extra delicious and crunchy using “de-chipping” by which baking chips (chocolate chips, peanut butter chips, mint chips, etc.) are chopped to smithereens in the food processor before adding them to the cookie dough. These tiny morsels of flavor disperse throughout the dough, boosting flavor and texture.

I baked these Chocolate Peppermint Shortbread Cookies using the  Nestle’s Winter Mix baking chips (dark chocolate and mint chips). Mint chips seem to be a Christmas season item. If you aren’t a chip hoarder like I am, and find yourself in the middle of July without access to mint baking chips, use chocolate chips and add ¼ teaspoon of peppermint extract to the dough.

To get the entire recipe, go over to see what Wendy has in store at her blog: The Monday Box: Chocolate Peppermint Shortbread Cookies.
