Ingredients
Scale
2 ½ cups All-purpose flour
1 teaspoon Baking soda

1 cup Unsalted butter, softened
¾ cup Granulated sugar

2 Large eggs
1 teaspoon Pure vanilla extract

½ – 1 teaspoon Green gel food coloring

Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone mats

- In a large bowl, using an electric mixer, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy

- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined
- Gently fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips and any optional mint chips or chopped mint chocolate candies
- Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spaced about 2 inches apart
- Bake for 9-11 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden and the centers are still soft
- Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack
- Serve your freshly baked Soft Green Mint Chocolate Chip Cookies warm or at room temperature
Notes
For thicker, chewier cookies, chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before baking.
