How to create chocolate candy cane cookies
In this guide, you’ll find detailed instructions and step-by-step images to help you make this delightful recipe. The complete list of ingredients is provided below.
Step 1: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Prepare 2 baking sheets by lining them with parchment paper or silicone mats.
Step 2: In a large microwave-safe bowl, heat the butter for approximately 40 seconds until it’s about 90% melted. Whisk until fully melted.
Step 3: Add both types of sugars and mix until thoroughly combined.
Step 4: Incorporate vanilla extract, peppermint extract, and an egg, mixing until well-blended.
Step 5: Add the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt. Be sure to follow the recipe note regarding flour measurement. Mix the dough until it is just combined, ensuring it is soft and slightly sticky but not excessively so.
Step 6: Fold in the chocolate chips and white chocolate chips.
Step 7: Using a medium cookie scoop, portion out 1.5 tablespoons of dough and space them 2 inches apart on the baking sheet.
Step 8: Bake for 7-10 minutes, or until set. The cookies should appear puffy and may look slightly undercooked in the center.
Step 9: For decoration, melt the chopped white chocolate in a heatproof bowl using a microwave, heating in 15-second intervals and stirring in between.
Step 10: Dip half of each cooled cookie into the melted white chocolate and return them to the wire rack.
Step 11: While the chocolate is still wet, sprinkle crushed peppermint candies on top. Allow the chocolate to set at room temperature.
