Instruction
00:00 Introduction
00:25 Combine melted butter and cocoa powder in a large mixing bowl and stir until well combined.
01:23 Add sugars and stir well.
01:51 Add egg, egg yolk, and vanilla extract and stir.
02:30 In a separate medium-sized bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
03:05 Gradually add dry ingredients to wet, stirring until completely combined.
03:37 Cover dough with plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator for 30 minutes. Meanwhile, preheat oven to 350F (175C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
After Chilling
03:52 Once dough has chilled, scoop cookie dough by 2 tablespoon-sized scoop and roll between your palms to form a smooth ball. Place on prepared baking sheet, spacing cookies at least 2” (5cm) apart.
04:25 Bake in center rack of 350F (175C) preheated oven for 10-11 minutes. Within 1 minute of removing from the oven, gently flatten the surface of the cookie using a clean, flat surface (I use the bottom of a 1-cup measuring cup). This will give you a smooth/flat surface for the frosting. Allow to cool completely before decorating.
Mint Frosting
05:00 Place butter in a large mixing bowl and use an electric mixer to beat until smooth and creamy.
05:18 Gradually add sugar and stir on low-speed until well combined.
05:38 Add salt, vanilla extract, and peppermint extract. Stir well.
06:15 Add food coloring (if using) and stir until evenly incorporated.
Ganache
07:23 Combine chocolate and heavy cream in a medium-sized microwave-safe bowl.
07:35 Microwave on high for 25 seconds. Stir well. Microwave for another 25 seconds and stir again until you have a smooth consistency. If chocolate is still not melted, continue to microwave in 10 second increments until smooth.
Assembly
08:25 Spread or pipe frosting evenly over cooled cookies (I use a piping bag fitted with an open tip).
08:49 Use a spoon to drizzle or gently spread ganache over the frosting. Allow chocolate to set before enjoying.
Notes
Food coloring
This is optional but will give the cookies a mint-green hue. I used “Mint” Americolor gel food coloring for the cookies in the photos and video.
Storing
Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days. Cookies may be refrigerated in an airtight container for up to 5 days, but I personally think they taste best at room temperature so I’ll remove mine from the fridge to sit at room temperature for 15 minutes before enjoying.

I tried this recipe with my kids today because I accidentally bought mint chocolate bars (I thought it was plain 70% oops!). I topped mine with German buttercream and the drizzled mint chocolate and a non-pareil. They're not only beautiful, this cookie base is outrageously good. Thank you!!

OH LORDY! You know my weaknesses too well!
Im new to the channel!!! Im loving it so far. One question..... what is natural Cocoa powder? Is that like the Hershey's baking cocoa or is it raw cacao? I have both so I just need to know what im supposed to be using 🍪
Welcome to the channel! Natural cocoa powder is Hershey's baking cocoa. It normally says it on the front. :)
Ok asking what is that picture on the refrigerator would that be pictures of a baby on the way?
Yes.
It is! :) :) :)
Hi There Do you think I could use Bob's Red 1:1 gluten free flour in place of reg flour for the cookies? Thank you. Hello. So I asked you about gluten free flour. My husband and I made the peanut butter ones, not the mint. We made them gluten free with vegan butter and vegan ganache. Cookies look and taste great. I had a photo to send you but can’t send photos in comments. Have a nice day
I haven't tried it, but would love to know how it goes if you do try it. :)
@@SugarSpunRun Thank you for your reply. I will definitely let you know. Have a good day 🌷
Hi Sam how are you I’m Laura I’m going to try these cookies❤
I hope you love them! :)
Have you ever tried the Girl Scout cookies called Thin Mints?
Thank You Our Lord Jesus Christ ❤for this lady Sam sharing these homemade desserts 🍪 cookies decorated n pancakes 🥞 ❤.
Thank you! :)
Thank you Sam, n others may God bless you n you're families ❤️
That’s a little bit too much chocolate for me, but I watched this video all of the way until the end, I gave it a 👍🏻, I shared it and I saved it to support your channel. So, I hope you don’t mind answering a question. What does “Sugar Spun Run” mean? I read your “About Me” page on your website. That’s where I learned about the unfortunately unsuccessful attempt by your father to pay tribute to Tabitha on Bewitched, but this insight into your life didn’t shed any light on the origins of your SSR brand name.
I do appreciate the support! The name doesn't really have a great story behind it. I liked the alliteration of "Sugar Spun" together, but at the time I started my blog Sugar Spun was not available. I also enjoyed running so since Sugar Spun wasn't available I added the run and started my website. At the time, I didn't know it would eventually become my job. I have since been able to acquire the sugar spun name but have already established my brand a bit so haven't been able to pull the trigger on dropping the run part. Sorry it's not an overly exciting story.
@@SugarSpunRun Thanks for the explanation! FASCINATING story!!!
Where's your husband and what's his name? I'm not asking a personal question but I'm asked that question just in case y'all might make something together in the kitchen.
Mm it looks good like gourmet with a fresh good breath of mint.
He actually makes an appearance in my maple glazed salmon video. :) ruclips.net/video/nR0T_pVJCg8/видео.htmlsi=5dUlQ9d8nYadEbsk
@@SugarSpunRun OH really wow I bet it was good to u and to your kids. Did y'all have it for dinner? 🍽️
