Ingredients:

Serving

1/2 cup butter, softened
1 cup sugar
1 egg
1 tsp peppermint extract
1-1/2 cups king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour
1/2 cup baking cocoa
1/4 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt
topping:
1 cup (6 oz) semisweet chocolate chips
1/2 heavy whipping cream
1/4 cup white baking chips
green paste food coloring, optional

Directions:

In a large bowl, cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in egg and extract. Combine the flour, cocoa, baking soda, baking powder and salt; gradually add to creamed mixture and mix well.
Shape into 1-in. balls; place in paper-lined miniature muffin cups. Bake at 350° for 8-10 minutes or until set. Remove to wire racks. Cool completely.
Place chocolate chips in a small bowl. In a small saucepan, bring cream just to a boil. Pour over chocolate; whisk until smooth. Cool to room temperature, stirring occasionally. Refrigerate until ganache reaches a piping consistency, about 20 minutes. Pipe over cookies.
In a microwave-safe bowl, melt white baking chips at 50% power for 1 minute; stir until smooth. Tint with food coloring if desired. Pipe over tops. Yield: 4 dozen.
