5. #### Ingredients:
6. - 2 sticks (16 tablespoons) unsalted butter, softened
7. - 1 1/4 cups (300 grams) granulated sugar
8. - 1 cup packed light brown sugar
9. - 4 large eggs, room temperature
10. - 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
11. - 4 cups all-purpose flour
12. - 1 tablespoon baking soda
13. - 1 teaspoon salt
14. - 6 ounces semisweet chocolate chips (about 3/4 cup)
15. - 1/2 cup crushed candy canes or finely ground peppermint candies
17. #### Equipment:
18. - Large mixing bowl
19. - Hand mixer or stand mixer
20. - Measuring cups and spoons
21. - Spatula
22. - Cookie scoop or spoon
23. - Baking sheets
25. ### Step-by-Step Instructions:
27. #### Preheat Your Oven:
28. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
30. #### Mix the Wet Ingredients:
31. In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and sugars until smooth. Add in the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
33. #### Combine Dry Ingredients:
34. Sift or whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt in a separate bowl. Gradually add this mixture to the wet ingredients while mixing on low speed. The dough will be slightly crumbly, which is fine.
36. #### Add Chocolate Chips and Peppermint:
37. Stir in the chocolate chips and crushed candy canes until evenly distributed throughout the cookie dough.
39. #### Chill the Dough (Optional):
40. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a clean kitchen towel and refrigerate for about 30 minutes. Chilling helps prevent the cookies from spreading too much during baking.
42. #### Prepare the Cookie Batches:
43. Use a cookie scoop or spoon to portion out the dough, placing each ball on the prepared baking sheets about 2 inches apart (for larger cookies) or closer together (for thinner, crispier cookies).
45. #### Bake and Cool:
46. Bake for 10-15 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden. Remove from the oven and let cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to wire racks to fully cool.
48. ### Tips for Perfect Cookies:
49. - Ensure your butter is at room temperature; this makes it easier to cream with sugars.
50. - Use high-quality chocolate chips for better flavor.
51. - Crush candy canes in a resealable bag with a rolling pin for an even texture.
52. - Experiment with different types of peppermint candies or extract for varying flavors.
54. By following these steps, you'll have a batch of delicious chocolate chip peppermint cookies that are sure to be a hit at any holiday gathering. Enjoy your baking!
