Chocolate Mint Marvels
My new cookie for 2019 is my own creation - something I'm calling Chocolate Mint Marvels (sort of likeThe Marvelous Mrs. Maisel but different). Basically York Peppermint Patties enveloped in dark chocolate wafers.
Ingredients
| 1 1/2 cup | all-purpose flour |
| 1/2 cup | cocoa powder |
| 3/4 tsp | salt |
| 1/4 tsp | baking powder |
| 1/2 cup | unsalted butter (1 stick) |
| 1 1/4 cup |
sugar |
| 1 | large egg |
| 1 tsp | vanilla |
| ~10-12 | small York Peppermint Patties |
Instructions
- Whisk flour, cocoa powder, salt, and baking powder together in a medium bowl. In a separate bowl, beat butter and sugar on medium-high speed until fluffy. Beat in egg and vanilla. Reduce mixer to low and add flour mixture until just combined.
- Shape dough into disc or ball and chill dough for 15-30 minutes.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Pinch off 1-inch diameter balls. Cut peppermint patties into quarters. Flatten balls into discs. place 1/4 of peppermint patty between two discs and seal the edges.
- Place cookies 2 inches apart on a baking sheet lined with parchment. Bake for 8-12 minutes. cool on racks.
