Preparation
  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a large bowl, mix the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until creamy.
  3. Beat in the eggs, one at a time, and stir in the vanilla extract until combined.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.
  5. Gradually add the dry mixture into the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
  6. Gently stir in the semi-sweet chocolate chips, white chocolate chips, and crushed peppermint.
Baking
  1. Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  2. Bake for 10-12 minutes until the edges are golden.

Notes

Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes for thicker cookies. Store in an airtight container for up to one week, refrigerate for longer storage, or freeze for up to three months.
