Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup unsalted butter melted and cooled at least 10 minutes
  • 1 cup light or dark brown sugar tightly packed
  • ¾ cup granulated sugar
  • 1 large egg + 1 egg yolk room temperature preferred
  • 1 ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 ¾ cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 Tablespoon cornstarch
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon baking powder
  • ¾ teaspoon salt
  • 1 heaping cup chopped Andes mint chocolate candies this was 28 Andes candies for me, and conveniently packs are generally sold as 28 count
  • ⅓ cup mini chocolate chips

Instructions
 

  • Combine melted, cooled butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar in a large bowl and stir until well-combined. Stir in eggs and vanilla extract. Set aside.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, cornstarch, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.
  • Gradually add dry ingredients to wet until completely combined.
  • Add mint chocolate candy pieces and mini chocolate chips and sir well.
  • Cover bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30-60 minutes.
  • 15 minutes before you're ready to begin baking your cookies, preheat oven to 350F (175C).
  • Remove cookie dough from refrigerator and scoop dough by heaping 1 ½ Tablespoon-sized balls and drop onto parchment paper lined baking sheet². I like to roll the dough between my palms to get uniform, round cookies but you do not have to. Space cookie dough at least 2" apart on baking sheet.
  • Transfer to 350F (175C) preheated oven and bake cookies 12 minutes or until edges are light golden brown The centers of the cookies may still seem a little underdone but allow the cookies to cool completely on the baking sheet. They'll finish baking there and this is key to keeping them nice and soft.
  • Enjoy!
