Double Chocolate Mint Cookies

This recipe is adapted from a collection of Christmas recipes I looked through in December. It makes cookies that taste a lot like peppermint brownies. We all like them a lot.

3/4 cup butter, softened

1/3 cup brown sugar

1/4 cup white sugar

1 egg

1 tsp vanilla

1 tsp peppermint extract

1 1/2 cups whole wheat flour

1/2 cup cocoa

1 tsp baking soda

1/4 tsp salt

1 cup chocolate chips

Cream together butter and sugars. Add egg, vanilla and peppermint extract. Add dry ingredients and stir, then add chocolate chips and stir.

Bake at 350 F for 10 minutes on a greased cookie sheet.
