    Prep Time:       Cook Time:       Total Time:  

1 1/4 cups flour
1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder, sifted
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
1/3 cup light brown sugar, firmly packed
1/3 cup sugar
1 large egg
1 tsp vanilla extract
8 oz candy canes or hard peppermint candies, finely crushed
4 oz. bittersweet chocolate, chopped into chip-size bits (For best chocolate flavor, look for good-quality dark or bittersweet (not unsweetened) chocolate with a minimum of 70% cocoa solids.)

Preheat oven to 350. Line a baking sheet with a silicon baking mat or lightly butter sheet.

Combine flour, cocoa powder, baking soda and salt in a medium bowl. Whisk to combine.

Combine butter and sugars in a medium bowl, cream together until light and fluffy. Scrape down the sides of bowl, add egg and vanilla; beat to combine.

With mixer on low, spoon in dry ingredients; mix to combine. Add crushed candy and chocolate bits; mix until evenly incorporated.

Shape dough into 1-inch balls. Place 3 inches apart on baking sheet and flatten slightly. Bake 10 to 12 minutes.

Remove sheet from oven and immediately use a metal spatula to neaten any edges where a piece of candy may have melted out. Let cookies cool for about 5 minutes on sheet. Transfer to a wire cooling rack to cool completely.

Makes about 4 dozen cookies
