How to Make Gooey Chewy Double Chocolate Chip Candy Cane Cookies

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with a COOKINA® Cuisine Reusable Baking Sheet or parchment paper.
In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter, white sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
Beat in the eggs, one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.
Dissolve the baking soda in hot water, then add it to the batter along with the salt.
Gradually mix in the flour until just incorporated, then fold in the chocolate chips and crushed candy canes or peppermint candy pieces.
Drop large spoonfuls or scoops of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing the cookies about 2 inches apart.
Bake on the middle rack of the preheated oven for 10-13 minutes, or until the edges are golden.
Allow the cookies to cool on a wire rack before serving.

Helpful Tips:

For a more intense peppermint flavor, add 1/2 teaspoon of peppermint extract to the dough.
Use high-quality chocolate for the best flavor and texture.
Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one week, or freeze for up to three months.
