Mint Chip Sugar Cookies are always a holiday favorite! And what would the holidays be without mint “everything”? These cookies are “melt in your mouth soft” and have the perfect amount of minty goodness! Besides that they are so much easier to make than rolling, cutting out and decorating sugar cookies!

It wasn’t until I was much older in life before I had the luxury of going out to get ice cream. I never realized there were so many flavors to choose from. Once I found out about mint chocolate chip, I rarely chose anything else. Eating minty desserts seems like the right thing to do during the Holidays! I love that these are as “melt in your mouth” soft as sugar cookies without all of the fuss or rolling out and decorating traditional sugar cookies. Let’s keep it real here, sometimes us women just don’t have time for all of that fuss…but still need a crowd pleasing cookie! Mint Chip Sugar Cookies will help you please your crowds and save you time to boot! Enjoy!!

NOTE: I updated some of the photos for this post in 2017! The recipe and instructions stayed exactly the same because they were already perfect just as they were! Enjoy!

Watch Mint Chip Sugar Cookie Video to see how to make them!

Check out my video to see how to make Mint Chip Sugar Cookies! Keep in mind, I usally add green food coloring at the same time as I add peppermint extract. Follow the recipe and not me! Ha! My husband came in and asked me a question about the farm and I totally got side tracked! I’m not entirely blaming him…maybe I’m just saying I get distracted easily! Anyway, I still think it’s easier to add food coloring right after you cream the sugar, butter, and eggs than adding it with the flour!

Here are the step by step instructions and photos, old photos!Extra Creamed Sugar Cookies

One of the secrets to making Mint Chip Sugar Cookies is allowing the sugar and butter to cream for 3 minutes. Trust me, it makes the cookies extra soft!

Mint Sugar Cookies

Add green food coloring and peppermint extract. Cream again for about 2 minutes.

Mint Chip Sugar Cookie Dough!

It was beautiful before.  However, after adding all of the dry ingredients and mint  and chocolate chips it is irresistibly good. Yes, I have a problem with eating WAY too much cookie dough. The only thing that saves me from eating all of it is that I have to tell my kids (and husband) that they can’t have anymore. And I feel hypocritical if I keep eating it and won’t let them have any.

Dropped Mint Sugar Cookies!

Drop the dough with a 2″ cookie scoop on parchment lined cookie sheet.
Melt in your mouth Mint Sugar Cookies!

Bake at 350 degrees for about 10 minutes, they will start to crack when they are done. Let them cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to finish cooling.

Note: If you choose to use a smaller cookie scoop reduce baking time!

It’s just not Christmas until you’ve made Mint Chip Sugar Cookies!

My kiddo’s keep asking me when we can have green cookies again. Since they are a cinch to make I’m thinking it will make a great after school surprise this week!

Be sure to pin it for later!

Mint Chip Sugar Cookies

Melt in your mouth sugar cookies filled with irresistible mint chips! Sure to please a crowd and thankfully are quicker than decorating traditional sugar cookies.

    How much mint flavoring? I don’t see it in the recipe

      December 3, 2013 at 1:37 pm

      I used 1 1/2 tsp. peppermint extract and about 3 drops of food coloring. They are listed in the ingredient list on the printable recipe. However, I’m an impulse baker and add ingredients randomly. With this recipe you can add more of less extract to taste. You can also adjust the food coloring to make the cookies the color of green that you prefer! Good luck and enjoy!

    Hello – I am eager to make these for my family. The recipe calls for 6 oz. of Andes Mint pieces. (Are you referring to the Andes chips? or are you chopping up the individually wrapped candies?

      These came out great except they stuck to the pan too much resulting in some bad looking (They tasted great) cookies. Even when I sprayed the pan with pan between batches. Did anyone else have this problem? How can I combat this?

        Hi Cheyenne! I’m not sure why these cookies would stick to the pan so badly. I’ve never had that happen before. Typically when I make cookies I line my cookie sheets with parchment paper. It makes clean up a breeze and it keeps cookies from sticking. Hopefully that helps!

    Great recipe, thank you. I had to adjust the oven temp to 325 because the cookies started turning brown, and i really wanted to preserve the green color for a Grinch theme. I also found the cookies were not spreading even after the cookie dough sat on the counter for a bit… So i just squished them down with my fingers to have flat cookies as opposed to dome shaped ones. Kids absolutely live them, they were a big hit 🙂

      I wonder if the altitude affected the way your cookies baked! What a great idea to use them for a Grinch themed party! Glad they worked for you! I took these to a Christmas party over the weekend and my kids were arm wrestling over the last one!

    Hi there, I made these today and they are very, very tasty! I am wondering though if 3 cups of flour may be too much, or add an additional 1/2 cup of butter?. I made these exactly as written, however I had to add a couple of tablespoons of water so that the dough would be come, just that dough. Otherwise it was a crumbly mess. I loosely measured my flour, as I always do when baking, so just not sure where I went wrong? The taste is there, but next time I think some modifications are in order … For at least me anyway! Thanks for recipe, I do love the taste.

    Did you really find that 3 drops of green dye was enough? I’ve put in nearly 10 drops (still baking as we speak!) and they just look brown/yellow…

    Reply
    • Amy Engberson says

      December 18, 2013 at 2:15 pm

      When I bake I usually have extra hands, little hands, helping me! I know that the drops that my six year old put in where big ones!! So you may need to use more than three. Food coloring is one of those things that doesn’t really have to be exact. Just add enough until you get the green color that you like! Either way they taste amazing!

        I have made these (a holiday FAVORITE – thank you so much!!) several times – with regular grocery dye, I find i need to use at least 2-3 times as much for the green i’d like and its still not AS grinchy dark as I would like…. using professional (ninja turtle color dye) i use MUCH less… 3 drops would be enough to dye your cookies and hands! 🙂 … unfortunately my husband repurposed as leak detection for the pool so back to grocery for nowlol

    I’m making these as we speak! I couldn’t find the Andes Baking Chips so I had to chop up the individually wrapped candies (pain in the butt! Lol) I also didn’t have cream of tarter, so I added some more baking powder. So we’ll see how these turn out. They seem to be leveling out fine and look good!! They also smell wonderful. I can’t wait to taste them!

      Darn. It sounds like you needed to add more green food coloring to get that pretty green color. I’m wondering if you used a smaller cookie scoop than I did, which would cause them to be over baked and dry. My scoop is a barely larger than 2 Tablespoons. If you use a smaller scoop you would need to bake for a shorter amount of time. Sorry they didn’t work for you.

    I am baking these now, and like others have said, I will need to put way more than 3 drops of food coloring to get that pretty green color like yours! Also, mine stayed kind of lumpish and didn’t flatten out. I’m blaming that on my hand mixing by wooden spoon. I need to splurge on on one of those fancy mixers! Great recipe though, love that my house smells like peppermints!

      Glad your cookies were so tasty. Yes, others have mentioned that more than three drops of food coloring were needed. My six year old “helped” me with that part. He must have made them really big drops! I think the creaming the butter and sugar for a long time makes these cookies have a perfect texture.

    These cookies are amazing! I love mint choc chip ice cream & these are right on par if not better than that.
    I am for sure making them again. Next time I’m gonna try it out with gluten free flour.
    I know you suggested adding as much colouring as you like until the colour looks as green as you want them. I put about 16 drops of green food colouring from a 28ml bottle in the first half of my mixed cookie dough. They came out a slight green / off yellow colour. I added a lot more, probably another 20 drops of green colouring to the second half of the cookie dough and they turned out exactly like your photos!!!
    I made 27 delicious large-ish cookies. Thank you for such a great recipe.

I have turned on the Christmas music and getting ready to make them again but going to use the red and green Christmas M&M’s in place of the chocolate chips. I am hoping the M&M’s will make them the perfect Christmas cookie. Thank you for sharing such a yummy and simple cookie.

      Lilly, I’m so excited your niece shared this recipe with you! I’m in love with mint and adding chocolate to it makes it even better. The cookies will be extra cute with Christmas M & M’s. Since you are a fellow mint lover, I bet you would love my Loaded Grasshopper Bars. By the way, I’m posting Homemade Mint Oreo Cookies in a few days! Thanks for stopping by!

    These are delicious cookies! Instead of adding green food coloring I chilled the dough and rolled the balls in a mixture of white and green sprinkling sugar. They looked very festive, and my family liked the taste and texture the sugar added. Thanks so much!

    Just made these, made one batch green and the other red. They are so good! They taste like mint chocolate chip ice cream. I did not use liquid food coloring but the paste, and I barely used any. I have to admit I was afraid that the peppermint extract combined with the Andes would be too much mint (I am not a huge fan) but it was perfect. I have made extras to freeze.

      I usually sift dry ingredients, Tina. I wouldn’t think it would make that much of a difference though. Temperature of butter can change the consistency of the dough quite a bit. I make sure mine is room temperature but not overly soft. Hopefully that helps!

    Hi. I just made these cookies and followed the recipe exactly with the exception of no food coloring. The dough was really stiff and the cookies did not spread at all. They tasted OK but weren’t what I expected. Do you think the recipe needs less flour or more liquid ingredients? I can’t imagine that the few drops of food coloring that I omitted would change the texture so much. I ended up having to flatten each cookie ball before baking with my hands but they still don’t look like your pictures in your photo.

      I’m sad these cookies didn’t turn out for you Amy. I don’t think omitting the food coloring would have affected the success of the cookies. Butter temperature can affect dough consistency as well as the amount of flour added. Maybe you can try decreasing the amount of flour you added. This cookie recipe turns out perfectly for me every time. Better luck next time!

I made these mint chip cookies yesterday and they are phenomenal (can’t stop eating them), good job and great recipe! I am a habitual cookie baker, always looking for good recipes and will be prowling your blog for more.

    Just did these (Alberta, Canada) first batch was very high and dome topped. Second cookie sheet I pressed them down. Didn’t like the look. Not very pretty looking (nothing like your picture). Second batch reduced flour by 1/2 cup. They now look like more like yours. Yeah! I think I might take out the Cream of tar tar next time. Great cookie for grandkids for Christmas.PS I used 3 drops Americolor Food Coloring. Grocery Store Food Coloring has less pigment in them and yes you will tend to use more drops.

I substituted green gel food coloring and it worked just fine. My cookies were a darker green than they normally are but they still tasted just fine. I would start adding a tiny bit and go from there. A little goes a long ways and you can always add more. Merry Christmas!

      I’ve never tried freezing these cookies before but I imagine they would freeze just fine. One of my favorite things to do is to drop the cookie dough on a cookie sheet, then freeze it until firm. I put the frozen cookies in a sealable container and store them in the freezer until I’m ready to bake them. It’s nice because I can bake a few, or a lot at once and they are ready in no time!

    These look wonderful and remind me a little of cookies I once made for my family doctor. He loved them so much that he told the woman at the front desk not to charge me whenever I arrived with a tin of the cookies. I used a chocolate chip batter but added chopped up mint bark from a local candy store. Yummy. Another time, I made my daughter’s birthday cake and put Andes’ Mints between the still warm cake layers, leaving the outer 1” free for melting. Not a piece left. Thanks for all your yummy inspiration. You really make me wish my back did not hurt so much,

      I think trading cookies for doctors visits is a great idea! All of those recipe ideas sound amazing! I hope you get feeling better soon!

    I love mint and chocolate chip cookies. I have never put the two together at home. But I know what I am making tomorrow for a yummy treat!

      These are really good for the first holiday cookies of the season. It’s hard not to eat all the batter raw! After the cookies are baked, I would add cookie chunks to vanilla ice cream if I had any . . .

        I like the way you think! Raw cookie dough is the BEST part of making cookies! I’ve never had these cookies last very long, but adding them to ice cream would be delicious! Thanks for sharing!

    This is my youngest son’s favorite Christmas cookie. In times when I don’t go “all out” with baking a big variety of cookies, this one always makes the cut! Thank you for a delicious and treasured recipe!
