Peppermint Patty Mini Cookie Sandwiches place YORK MINIS between two dark chocolate cookies for a rich chocolate-and-peppermint treat.

If you love dark chocolate, these are for you. I didn’t always prefer dark chocolate, but now I’ll take chocolate any way I can get it. Dark cocoa has a deep, luscious flavor that’s irresistible, and when paired with cool peppermint it’s a perfect combo. That’s how these Peppermint Patty Mini Cookie Sandwiches were born.
Soft, chewy dark chocolate cookies studded with mini chocolate chips are sandwiched around a YORK MINI. The sandwiches are assembled while the cookies are still warm so the candy melts slightly and everything fuses together into a gooey, minty bite.
Chocolate and peppermint feel refreshing and indulgent at the same time. These little cookie sandwiches are the perfect mini dessert—cute, satisfying, and easy to share.
Pick up a package of YORK MINIS, bake a batch of these cookies, and assemble while warm. They’re small, adorable, and melt-in-your-mouth delicious—perfect for holiday gatherings or anytime you want a mint-chocolate treat.
Peppermint Patty Mini Cookie Sandwiches
Ingredients
- ½ cup (113 g) unsalted butter, room temperature
- ¼ cup (50 g) plus 2 Tbsp light brown sugar, gently packed
- ¼ cup (50 g) plus 2 Tbsp granulated sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 large egg
- 1 ¼ cup (150 g) all-purpose flour (stir, spoon & level)
- 3 Tbsp Hershey’s Special Dark Cocoa Powder
- ½ tsp baking soda
- ½ tsp salt
- 1 cup (170 g) mini semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 8 oz (227 g) package YORK MINIS (about 40 candies)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In the bowl of a stand mixer, cream together the butter and both sugars until light and fluffy. Add vanilla and egg and mix until smooth, scraping the bowl as needed.
- In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, cocoa, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add the dry mixture to the butter mixture until combined. Fold in the mini chocolate chips.
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Drop rounded 1-teaspoon portions of dough onto the tray about 2 inches apart.
- Bake 7 minutes or until the cookies are puffed and just set.
- Let cookies cool on the baking sheet 1–2 minutes, then sandwich a YORK MINI between two warm cookies. Place each sandwich on a wire rack to finish cooling. Gently press so the melting chocolate helps the cookies adhere to the peppermint patty. Repeat with remaining cookies. Enjoy!
