Fudgy White Chocolate Peppermint Cookies
- 3/4 cups White Whole Wheat Flour
- 1/2 cups All-purpose Flour
- 1/2 cups Unsweetened Cocoa Powder
- 1 teaspoon Baking Soda
- 1/8 teaspoons Salt
- 1/2 cups Salted Butter
- 3/4 cups Brown Sugar, Packed
- 1 whole Egg
- 1 whole Egg Yolk
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
- 24 pieces Hershey's White Chocolate Peppermint Kisses, Unwrapped
- 1/4 cups Granulated Sugar (for Rolling, Some Will Be Left Over)
- Note this requires inactive chill time of at least 2 hours.
- 1. In a small bowl, mix together the flours, cocoa powder, baking soda and salt. Set aside.
- 2. In a medium mixing bowl using an electric mixer, cream together the butter and brown sugar.
- 3. Add the eggs and vanilla and beat well.
- 4. Slowly add in the flour mixture and beat until thoroughly mixed
- 5. Chill for a minimum of 2 hours. I chilled mine overnight.
- 6. Preheat oven to 350 F. Put the granulated sugar in a shallow bowl.
- 7. Wrap approximately 1 tablespoon of dough around a peppermint Kiss, roll in granulated sugar and set on a parchment paper lined cookie sheet. Space the cookies about 2 inches apart on the baking tray.
- 8. Bake for approximately 8 minutes. Every oven is different so once you reach 7 minutes, take a peek. The cookies should be puffed up and slightly cracked on top but still soft. You do not want to over bake these or they will seem a bit dry and less fudgy.
- 9. Pull pans out of the oven and allow cookies to cool on the baking sheets for 10 minutes before transferring to a cooling rack.
- 10. Enjoy!
- Note: 1 cookie = 116 calories. I got 24 cookies out of this batch.
