Delight in the perfect blend of mint and chocolate with these delectable Mint Chocolate Shortbread Cookies. The buttery richness of the shortbread complements the refreshing mint flavor, while the mini chocolate chips and dark chocolate add bursts of chocolatey goodness.
Ingredients: 1 cup unsalted butter, softened. 1/2 cup powdered sugar. 1 tsp mint extract. 2 cups all-purpose flour. 1/2 cup mini chocolate chips. 1/4 cup finely chopped dark chocolate or chocolate shavings. 1/4 tsp salt.
Instructions: In a bowl, cream together butter and powdered sugar until smooth. Add mint extract and mix until combined. Gradually add flour and salt, mixing until a dough forms. Fold in mini chocolate chips and finely chopped dark chocolate. Form the dough into a log shape, about 2 inches in diameter. Wrap the dough log in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1-2 hours. Preheat the oven to 350F 175C and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Slice the chilled dough into rounds, about 1/4-inch thick. Place the cookies on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
