People tend to love my peppermint chocolate crunch cookies.Molly Allen

I'm a pro baker, and I make these easy peppermint chocolate crunch cookies every holiday season.
The ingredients for this recipe can be found at just about any grocery store.

When the holiday season hits, so do the invitations for cookie exchanges and festive parties.

And, as a professional baker and recipe developer, I'm always looking for creative spins on the classics.

So, every year, I make a big batch of these peppermint chocolate crunch cookies — and anyone who tries them asks me for the recipe.

Here's how to make them at home.

Grab all of your ingredients.

I suggest using a high-quality bar of chocolate. Molly Allen

Start by creaming the softened butter and sugars.

You can use a hand mixer to incorporate your ingredients. Molly Allen

Add the dry ingredients to finish the dough.

Make sure your dry ingredients are fully incorporated into the wet ones. Molly Allen

Mix in the chocolate and crushed peppermint.

You can use crushed peppermint rounds if you can't find candy canes. Molly Allen

Scoop and bake the dough.

A scoop helps me make uniform cookies. Molly Allen

Bake the cookies until the edges start to turn golden.

Line your cookie sheets with parchment paper so the cookies don't stick to the pan. Molly Allen

The finished cookie is delicious.

These cookies are good the next day, too. Molly Allen

My group of 4 went to Texas Roadhouse for date night. The star of our $165 meal at the steak-house chain was a pork chop.
