A lucky spin on a peppermint fudge cookie!

Ingredients

  • 3/4 cup (175 mL) semi-sweet chocolate morsels
  • 1/4 cup (60 mL) butter
  • 1/2 cup (100 mL) sugar
  • 1   egg
  • 3/4 cup (175 mL) all-purpose flour

  • 1/4 cup (60 mL) white or semi-sweet chocolate morsels
  • 10-12   mini foil-wrapped peppermint patty candies, unwrapped

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line Large Sheet Pan with parchment paper. Combine chocolate morsels and butter in Classic Batter Bowl. Microwave on HIGH 40-60 seconds or until smooth, stirring after each 20-second interval using Classic Scraper. Add sugar and egg to batter bowl; mix until well blended. Add flour; mix just until flour is incorporated. Using Small Scoop, drop 20 level scoops of batter, 1 in. (2.5 cm) apart, onto pan. Bake 9-11 minutes or until edges are set. (Do not overbake.)
  2. Meanwhile, place crème de menthe candies into resealable plastic bag; crush using flat side of Meat Tenderizer and set aside. Place white chocolate morsels into a microwave-safe bowl; microwave, uncovered, on HIGH 30-60 seconds or until melted and smooth, stirring once. Set aside.
  3. Remove sheet pan from oven to Stackable Cooling Rack. Immediately turn over half of the cookies using Mini-Serving Spatula; top with peppermint patties and remaining cookies to form 10 sandwiches. Drizzle chocolate over cookies and immediately sprinkle with crushed candies. Transfer to serving platter. Line pan with another sheet of Parchment Paper and scoop remaining batter onto paper. Bake 9-10 minutes or until edges are set. Assemble sandwiches as directed above.
