Description

A breath of fresh air, these mint-flavored cookies are perfect for springtime. Using Guittard mint chips for a hint of color, these cookies are easy to make, and can be enjoyed for Easter and beyond.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup Unsalted Butter, Room Temperature
  • 1-¼ cup Powdered Sugar
  • ½ teaspoons Peppermint Extract
  • ½ teaspoons Vanilla Extract
  • 2 whole Egg Whites
  • 2 cups All-purpose Flour
  • ¼ teaspoons Salt
  • 1 cup Mint Chips (Guittard Or Others)

Preparation

Using a stand mixer (or hand mixer if you don’t possess a stand mixer), beat butter, powdered sugar, peppermint extract, and vanilla until smooth.

Beat in egg whites until blended. Then beat in the flour, salt and mint chips.

Cover the bowl and refrigerate for 30 minutes or so, until dough is firm but easily scoopable.

Using a cookie scoop of your choice, or a spoon, roll into balls and place on a cookie sheet.

Now here’s the part where your personal preference comes in. You can either take a glass, dip it in colored or white sugar, and slightly press the cookies down OR you can simply leave them. I found that either way, they will flatten out.

Bake in a 300-degree oven for 12-15 minutes, until the edges are barely brown and the middles look set. Let them cool on a cookie sheet for 5 or so minutes then transfer to a rack to cool completely.

Note that prep times includes time for chilling the dough. Number of servings is approximate based on cookie size.
