Ingredients

½ cup butter softened (1 stick)
¾ cup brown sugar packed
1 egg
¾ tsp peppermint extract
¾ cup all-purpose flour
¾ cup cocoa powder
½ tsp baking soda
¼ tsp salt
¾ cup chocolate chips

Instructions

Prep: Preheat your oven to 375 degrees F. Then, line a baking sheet with parchment paper or spray with a non-stick cooking spray. Set aside.
Cream butter: In a medium size mixing bowl, using a handheld electric mixer cream together the butter and brown sugar until fluffy.
Then, add in the egg and peppermint extract, beat again until combined.
Add dry ingredients: In a separate small bowl, stir together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt. Mash out any lumps that have formed by using your fingers or a spoon.

Then, stir in the chocolate chips, scraping the bottom of the bowl as you go to make sure that everything is evenly blended.
Bake: Proceed to place spoonful's of cookie dough onto the prepared cookie sheets, at least a few inches apart so that there is room for the cookies to expand.
