Chocolate Peppermint Cookies

These Chocolate Peppermint Cookies are wonderfully festive. Chocolate cookies filled with dark chocolate chunks and crushed peppermint candy canes. The perfect treat for a Saturday evening!

INGREDIENTS

200g Plain Flour

200g Butter

1 Egg

50g Cocoa Powder

150g Caster Sugar

60g Candy Canes

40g Dark Chocolate Chunks

METHOD

Place the plain flour, butter, egg, cocoa powder and sugar into a large mixing bowl. Beat together until it forms a dough.

Crush the candy canes, add them along with the chocolate chunks into the bowl, mix them into the dough.

Take approximately a tablespoon of the mixture, roll into a ball and place onto a pre lined baking sheet.

Press down on each ball slightly. Then place the baking sheet into the oven for approximately 12 to 15 minutes.

Take the cookies out of the oven and leave them on the tray to cool slightly, before transferring to a cooling rack.

Enjoy!
