Double Chocolate Peppermint Cookies

I am a huge fan of mint! Andes thin mints, Girl Scout cookies, York peppermint patties, I loved them all!

Double Chocolate Peppermint Cookies

I am also the type to find a way despite what is thrown at me. So, I adapted my ginger chocolate chip cookie recipe for this mint chocolate recipe. I enjoy it immensely!
