Small Batch Mint Chocolate Cookies

Small batch baking is a wonderful thing. Make only what you need so you're not tempted to eat too much. For some reason I didn't have semi sweet chocolate chips!

Small Batch Mint Chocolate Cookies
Adapted from Food Blogga
Makes 12 small cookies

Ingredients
  • 2oz mint chocolate chips
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 tablespoon beaten egg
  • 1/4 cup all purpose flour
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
  • pinch of salt
Directions
  1. Preheat the oven to 350F and line a baking sheet with a silicone pad, or parchment paper.
  2. Place the chocolate chips and butter in a bowl and microwave for about a minute or until melted. Stir until well combined.
  3. Stir in the brown sugar, vanilla and egg until well mixed.
  4. Sift in the flour, baking soda and salt. Stir again until well combined.
  5. Using a small cookie scoop, place the cookies on the cookie sheet. Bake for about 6 minutes. The cookies will puff up a bit and spread out.
  6. Remove from the oven and rest on the sheet for a few minutes. If you try to move them right away, they'll fall apart. Transfer to a wire wrack to cool completely.
