Indulgent chocolate-mint cream cheese cookies, perfect for baking with kids!
Ingredients:
  • 1.75 cups white sugar
  • 0.75 cup unsalted butter, at room temperature
  • 4 ounces cream cheese, at room temperature
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1 teaspoon peppermint extract
  • 1 egg
  • 2.5 cups all-purpose flour, divided
  • 8 drops green food coloring
  • 0.66666668653488 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 0.5 cup white sugar, for rolling
Instructions:
  • Preheat the oven to a toasty 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) and prepare the baking sheet with a silicone baking mat or parchment paper.
  • In a bowl, combine 1 3/4 cups sugar, butter, cream cheese, baking powder, salt, peppermint and vanilla extracts. Use a mixer to blend until smooth, about 2-3 minutes. Then add the egg and mix until combined. Finally, mix in 2 cups of flour on low speed until fully incorporated, for about 2-3 minutes. The dough will be soft.
  • Split dough in two equal portions and move one portion to a separate bowl. Blend food coloring into one portion and mix in the remaining 1/2 cup flour. Stir in cocoa powder into the other portion. Place 1/2 cup sugar in a small bowl.
  • Take approximately 1 teaspoon of green dough and form it into a small ball, repeating until all green dough is used. Repeat the process with the chocolate dough. Form each cookie by arranging 4 small dough balls in a row, alternating between green and chocolate. Press the 4 dough balls together and gently roll into one large ball. Coat in sugar and place on the baking sheet, ensuring there is a 2-inch gap between cookies. Repeat with the remaining dough.
  • Bake the cookies until the edges are a beautiful golden brown, for 13 to 15 minutes. Let them cool on the baking sheet for 10 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
