Instructions
Once you've laid out all your ingredients, set your oven rack in the center position, and preheat your oven to 350F.In a medium bowl, combine the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Use a whisk to make sure it is well combined and to break up any clumps. In another bowl, with a hand or stand mixer, cream together the butter and sugar. You want to beat it for 2-3 minutes until it's light and fluffy. Add in the egg and peppermint extract. Mix just enough to combine it with the butter-sugar mixture. Slowly add in the flour to the mixture. You can use the mixer or you can stir in by hand. Once the flour is all mixed in it's time to add in the chocolate chips and crushed candy canes. you want to mix these in by hand. Take a medium cookie scoop and place scoops of cookie dough on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake on the center rack in the oven for 8-11 minutes. You want crispy edges but a soft center. Remove from oven and let cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes then move it to a cooling rack to finish cooling. Enjoy with an ice-cold glass of milk or a warm cup of cocoa.
