- flour - unsweetened cocoa powder - baking powder - baking soda - salt - dark brown sugar - eggs - peppermint extract - unsweetened chocolate baking bars - unsalted butter - Ghiradelli peppermint chunks - candy canes

Dough can be prepared ahead of time and frozen. I would recommend freezing the dough after it's been scooped.

You'll love a cookie that is cakey, pepperminty, and has a bit of crunch to it from peppermint candy.
