Chocolate Mint Kiss Cookies – Green Treats For Party & Holiday Cookie Platters
Holiday baking has a funny way of turning into a popularity contest. One minute you’re dreaming up something new and exciting, and the next you’re staring at yet another tray of the same old cookies. That’s exactly how these chocolate mint Kiss cookies entered the scene—born from a tiny baking rebellion and a strong desire to shake up the usual Blossom Cookie Recipes lineup.
Picture this: a batch of rich, fudgy chocolate crinkle cookies fresh from the oven, their tops perfectly crackled, just waiting for their grand finale. Then comes the magic moment—the gentle press of a cool, creamy mint truffle kiss melting slightly into the warm cookie. That’s when these Chocolate Mint Blossom Cookies truly level up. The result? A soft, chewy bite that delivers deep chocolate flavor followed by a refreshing minty finish that feels downright luxurious.
Honestly, these aren’t just cookies—they’re conversation starters. Set a plate of these Green Treats For Party spreads, and watch how fast people hover around them. Someone always asks, “Wait… what ARE these?” followed by “Can I take three?” (FYI: the answer is usually yes, because sharing is overrated when cookies taste this good.)
They also bring a fun twist to classic Mint Cookie Recipes and even remind some folks of nostalgic Grasshopper Cookies Recipes—but with way more personality. Kids especially love helping out, mostly because they get to unwrap an army of chocolate kisses. Let’s be real: half of those mysteriously vanish before they even reach the cookies.
Whether you call them Mint Blossom Cookies, Chocolate Blossom Cookies, or simply Chocolate Cookies With Mint Kisses, one thing’s certain—they steal the spotlight every single time. And honestly? That cookie tray deserves a new star.
Chocolate Mint Kiss Cookies – Green Treats For Party & Holiday Cookie Platters
Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened at room temperature
- 1½ cups granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon peppermint extract
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- ⅔ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- ¾ teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ cup powdered (confectioners’) sugar
- 24 Mint Truffle Hershey’s Kisses, unwrapped
Directions
- Prepare the oven and pans
Heat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line two baking trays with parchment paper or silicone mats and set aside. - Combine the dry ingredients
In a medium bowl, stir together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt until evenly blended. - Cream the butter and sugar
In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter with the sugar using an electric mixer until light and fluffy. Add the eggs, vanilla extract, and peppermint extract, then continue mixing until smooth. - Make the dough
Slowly add the dry ingredient mixture into the wet mixture, blending just until a soft dough forms. - Shape and coat
Place the powdered sugar in a small bowl. Scoop about 1 tablespoon of dough at a time, roll into balls, then coat each ball generously in powdered sugar. Arrange them on the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches between each. - Bake
Bake for 8–10 minutes, until the cookies spread slightly and develop a crackled surface. While they bake, unwrap the chocolate kisses. - Add the chocolate centers
Remove the cookies from the oven and immediately press one mint truffle Kiss into the center of each cookie. - Cool
Allow the cookies to cool fully on the baking sheets before transferring them to a wire rack to finish cooling.
