I took one bite of Swig’s chocolate peppermint cookies and knew I had to tweak mine. I landed on the perfect fudgy crinkle cookie with smooth frosting, and the perfect crunch from the peppermint candy! A Reader’s ReviewThese were so easy to make and they looked so nice perfect for Christmas and of course they are soooo good!!! I will always make these. Lots of compliments. – Denise Why You’ll Love This Copycat Version Real chocolate: Cocoa powder, chocolate chips, and real white chocolate give you that unbeatable triple chocolate flavor! Swig Experience from Home: Fudgy cookie, smooth frosting, and crunchy peppermint balanced exactly right. Chocolate Peppermint Cookies Ingredients White Chocolate: Use real white chocolate, not white baking chips. Cocoa butter helps it melt smoothly and taste better. Melt in 30 second bursts, stirring between each. Granulated Sugar Hack: Roll dough in granulated sugar first so the powdered sugar stays snowy instead of soaking in. Swig Copycat Chocolate Peppermint Cookies Recipe If you love Swig’s seasonal chocolate peppermint cookies but not the price, make this copycat at home. It will only take you 30 minutes to be able to enjoy this festive treat and for a fraction of the cost. Chocolate Peppermint Cookies Base Prep & Cream Butter & Sugar: Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper and set aside. In a medium sized mixing bowl, cream the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add the egg, vanilla extract, and peppermint extract and mix until incorporated. Combine Wet & Dry Ingredients: Whisk the flour, cocoa, baking soda, and salt in another bowl. Add to the butter mixture and mix until just combined. Stir in the chocolate chips. Roll Dough in Sugar: Shape the dough into 2-inch balls. Roll the dough in granulated sugar, and then in powdered sugar, and place on the prepared baking sheets, 6 dough balls per sheet. Bake: Slightly flatten the tops of the balls into 2-inch rounds with the bottom of a glass. Bake for 10-12 minutes or until set. Let the cookies cool for 10 minutes on the pans before transferring to a wire rack. White Chocolate Frosting Start Frosting: In a small bowl, melt the white chocolate in the microwave in 30 second intervals. Allow the fully melted chocolate to cool for at least 10 minutes. It needs to reach room temperature so it’s no longer warm to the touch. In a large bowl, add the softened butter and beat with a hand mixer for 2-3 minutes until smooth and light. Reduce the mixer speed to low and slowly add in the cooled white chocolate until fully combined and smooth. Mix: Add the powdered sugar, vanilla, peppermint extract, and salt, and mix on low. Mix until nearly completely absorbed, then increase the speed to high. Beat: Whip for 2-3 minutes until smooth and fluffy. Frost & Sprinkle: Frost the chocolate peppermint cookies with about two tablespoons of frosting and sprinkle with crushed peppermint. Alyssa’s Pro Tips Too Big? This recipe makes big, fudgy chocolate peppermint crinkle cookies. For smaller ones, scoop half-size and bake 8–9 minutes. Swig Experience: Chill the cookies for the full Swig vibe. They’re great cold or at room temp.
