I made these earlier this week with the help of my two toddlers. I wasn’t sure what they would think about them because they’ve never tried candy canes before. My 3.5 year old son was not a fan but my 2 year old daughter loved them! She apparently loves mint flavours like her mama.
Start by preheating your oven to 350 F and line two baking pans with parchment paper.
Crush 5 candy canes. I like to do this by placing the candy canes in a zip lock back and hitting them with the back of a metal spoon. You want the pieces to be quite small. Set aside after crushed.
In a medium sized bowl whisk flour, cocoa powder, salt, and baking soda together. Set aside.
In a large bowl or stand mixer with the paddle attachment cream together butter and sugars until light and fluffy. This usually takes 2-3 minutes. Add in egg and peppermint extract and mix till combined.
Add the flour mixture in and mix till just combined. Fold in the chocolate chips and crushed candy canes.
Crush the reaming two candy canes and place them in a shallow bowl. Scoop 1.5 tbsp worth of the cookie dough and shape into a ball. Dip the top of the cookie dough ball in the crushed candy canes. Place cookie dough balls 2 inches apart from each other on the baking sheet. Repeat until the dough is gone.
Bake for 8-9 minutes or until edges are firm. The cookies will still be soft but will firm up after cooling. Allow cookies to cool for a few minutes on the pan before moving to a wire rack to cool completely.
Bake them on your own or bake them with your kids, either way I’m sure you’ll love with these Chocolate Candy Cane Cookies!
