Ingredients

• 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour

• 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
• 3/4 cup granulated sugar
• 3/4 cup packed brown sugar
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 2 large eggs
• 2 cups chocolate chunks
• 1/2 cup mint leaves, chopped

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
2. In a small bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt and set aside.
3. In a large mixing bowl, cream together the butter, granulated sugar, brown sugar, and vanilla extract until light and fluffy.
4. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition until fully incorporated.
5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined to avoid over-mixing.
6. Stir in the chocolate chunks and chopped mint leaves until they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.
7. Use a spoon to drop rounded spoonfuls of cookie dough onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving space between each to allow for spreading.
8. Bake the cookies for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden, indicating doneness.
9. Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes to firm up before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
