  • 3 sticks butter
  • 1 1/4 c. granulated sugar
  • 1 1/4 c. brown sugar

  • 1 Tbsp vanilla
  • 4 1/3 c. flour

  • 1 tsp. baking powder
  • 2 c. chocolate chunks (one small bag)
  • 2 c. crushed peppermint
How To:
  1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees
  2. In mixer on med-low speed cream together butter, sugar, brown sugar, eggs, and vanilla (make sure to scrape the inside of the bowl a few times to ensure all gets mixed)
  3. Add flour, baking soda, and baking powder to mixer and mix until combined (again scraping the bowl)
  4. Stir in chocolate chunks and crushed peppermint. (I used a package of 60 mini candy canes that I unwrapped, put into a ziplock bag, and mashed with a meat mallet)

  6. Drop mixture by large rounded spoonfuls onto greased cookie sheet
  7. Bake in 375 degree oven on center rack for 10 minutes
