Ingredients
All-purpose flour – 2 1/3 cups
Baking soda – 1 teaspoon
Salt – 1/2 teaspoon
Unsweetened cocoa powder – 3/4 cup
Unsalted butter (room temperature) – 1 cup
Granulated sugar – 1 cup
Light brown sugar – 1 cup
Large eggs – 2
Pure vanilla extract – 2 teaspoons
Chopped mint Oreo cookies – 1 cup
Semi-sweet chocolate chips – 3/4 cup
Guittard mint chips – 3/4 cup
Flaky sea salt – for sprinkling
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, sift together the flour, baking soda, salt, and cocoa powder to remove any lumps.
Using a stand mixer or hand mixer, cream the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar together on medium-high speed until light and fluffy (about 2-3 minutes).
Add the eggs one at a time, followed by the vanilla extract. Mix until well combined and smooth.
Turn the mixer to low and gradually add the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined; do not overmix.
Fold in the chopped mint Oreos, semi-sweet chocolate chips, and mint chips using a spatula.
Scoop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them 2 inches apart.
Bake for 10 minutes until the edges are set but the centers remain soft.
Remove from the oven, sprinkle with flaky sea salt, and let cool on the pan for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
Notes
• Use high-quality cocoa powder for the deepest chocolate flavor.
• If you cannot find mint chips, chopped Andes mints work perfectly as a substitute.
• For a cleaner look, press a few extra Oreo chunks into the tops of the dough balls before baking.
• Ensure your butter is truly room temperature (soft but not greasy) for the best texture.
