Follow The Directions

01

Step

In a heavy-bottomed saucepan, combine the butter, brown sugar, water, and mint chocolate chips. Cook over low heat, stirring gently and frequently, until the butter is melted and the mixture is smooth and homogenous. This should take about 5-7 minutes.

02

Step

Transfer the melted chocolate mixture to a heat-safe bowl. Let it cool for approximately 10 minutes, allowing the mixture to become lukewarm. This prevents the eggs from cooking.

03

Step

Whisk the eggs into the cooled chocolate mixture one at a time, ensuring each is fully incorporated before adding the next. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Avoid overmixing to keep the cookies tender.

04

Step

Cover the dough tightly with plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour, or up to 2 hours. This allows the flavors to meld and the dough to become easier to handle.

05

Step

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper for easy release and cleanup.

06

Step

Using a cookie scoop or your hands, roll the dough into 1-inch balls. Place them about 1.5 inches apart on the prepared cookie sheets.

07

Step

Bake in the preheated oven for 12-13 minutes, or until the edges are set and the centers are slightly soft. The cookies will continue to set as they cool.

08

Step

As soon as the cookies are removed from the oven, gently press 1/2 of a mint candy onto the center of each cookie. Allow the candy to soften for about 30 seconds, then use a toothpick or skewer to create a delicate swirl design in the melted chocolate.

09

Step

Transfer the cookies to wire racks to cool completely. This will prevent them from sticking to the baking sheet.

For an extra touch of elegance, sprinkle a tiny pinch of sea salt on top of each cookie before baking.
If the dough is too sticky to handle, lightly dust your hands and the work surface with flour.
Store the cooled cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
