Peppermint Kahlua Chocolate Cookies


A cool minty, chocolaty, softy, pepperminty-crunchy cookie just in time for your last-minute holiday baking rush!  

I purchased a big bottle of Peppermint Mocha Kahlua a few years ago and have been able to put is to good use in a few recipes at Bake It with Booze.  We've made cakesandwich cookies, and whoopie pies with this festive and seasonally appropriate Peppermint Mocha Kahlua.  

Kahlua has also found its way into a few other goodies here at Bake It With Booze.  It's an easy way to add coffee to chocolate baked goods, thus bringing out the chocolate flavor without overpowering the recipe with coffee flavor.   

I always have cookies in the freezer in case I have a random sweet "need," or course, or for when I want to send a friend or my dad off with a few treats.  I don't know about you, but I rarely make cookies just for myself, which I did with these lovelies.  I share all the time, but sometimes it's just nice to have a batch all to myself. 

These cookies have just the right amount of chocolate with a nice cool hit of peppermint, are so easy to make and freeze wonderfully.  

And, who doesn't like a little extra peppermint with their chocolate? 


Happy Holidays and all the best to you in the New Year!
