Hi Shelby! It will work to dip these in almond bark. 🙂

Could I use almond bark to dip these in? Making peppermint bark as well so hoping I could use that for the cookies too!

Hi Sam,
I’ve been a fan for a few years now and love all your recipes. They are always delicious perfection without ever changing a thing! With these cookies, I did make a slight variation. Instead of dipping them in the white chocolate, I drizzled the white over the top and added the crushed peppermint while still wet. I only needed half the white chocolate recipe and there’s a little white chocolate and peppermint in every bite! Thank you for all your delicious tried and true, no fail recipes!

So these cookies are amazing, like all your other recipes I’ve tried so far. However I messed up the dough, i added the sugar before the butter/chocolate mixture was cool and my first batch went flat.. I was able to save subsequent batches by refrigerating the tray of dough balls for around 20 minutes before baking per the recipe instructions and I was able to save the rest (worth a try if anyone else was impatient and messed this up too)! They turned out amazing. I have made way more for Christmas than I had initially planned since stumbling across your website 🙂 my friends & family are in for a real treat!

These cookies were fantastic! The chocolate cookie is excellent, so much rich chocolate flavor like a brownie but in a cookie! This is my third recipe of yours that I have tried and none of them have disappointed but I am the most impressed by these chocolate cookies. Then adding the peppermint bark topping made them even better. The grocery store was sold out of peppermint extract so I just left it out but the peppermint candy still brought a good deal of peppermint flavor. One of my new favorite cookies. Thanks Sam for your great recipes.

I made these cookies last year to rave reviews! Definitely adding them to my normal Xmas cookie rotation.

I also made a dairy free batch for a friend with a cows milk protein allergy. I used vegan butter, enjoy life chocolate chips, and King David vegan white chocolate bars and they were still sooo good. No one could tell they were dairy free.

I am an experienced baker and was looking to add some new cookies to my holiday collection. I am so happy that I found your site. Every recipe that I have made (red velvet cookies, butter pecan cookies, key lime cookies,) has turned out wonderfully – especially these peppermint bark cookies. The dough is beautiful and easy to work with; the cookies do not lose their shapes when baked, and they are so easy to dip and decorate. You are my new go-to for holiday baking!

Wonderful chocolate cookie recipe! No chilling & cookie holds its shape perfectly. Crinkle top is soft but also chewy. The white chocolate dip & crushed peppermint take it over the top as a perfect Christmas treat. I now have my “go to chocolate cookie recipe!”

You’ve done it again, Sam! These came out perfect! They’re so festive and such a nice change from all of the typical cookies you can find in the store. I’m going to be making a double batch this week for a Christmas party at work and i’m so excited for everyone to try them! The hardest part for me was crushing the candy canes 🤣🤣 Everything else was a breeze. Thank you for another wonderful recipe, and happy holidays!!

Do these cookies freeze well after baking?

In reply to Matt.

Hi Matt! I’m so sorry for the confusion! Thank you for pointing that out. It is 100g. I will make sure to update it. I hope you love the cookies! 🙂

Love all your recipes! Making these now! Could you clarify the amount of white sugar for me? I thought 1/2 cup of white sugar would be 100g, not 50g. I’m making these now and going ahead with the 1/2 cup rather than the scale, but I wanted to kindly point out what I think is a discrepancy there, just in case anyone else has the same concern! Thanks!

Hi Cathy! A double boiler on the stove should do the trick 😊

Hi Sam,
If I don’t have a microwave, how is it best to melt/soften the chocolates? (without overcooking the bottom: if melting on the stovetop) thank you!

Not sure what coconut oil you are using, but mine is hard as a rock at room temp. Ive never seen any that wasnt.

In reply to Cheryl.

That should work fine here. I would probably just use a teaspoon though. 🙂

In reply to S.

Nope! The chocolate will still solidify just fine at room temperature (thanks to all the white chocolate), I used coconut oil for mine. Enjoy! 🙂
