Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees, with racks in upper and lower thirds. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, cocoa powder, and salt. In a large bowl, using an electric mixer, beat 1 cup each butter and sugar on medium-high until light and fluffy, 3 minutes. Add egg and vanilla; beat to combine. With mixer on low, gradually add flour mixture and beat to combine.
- Place 1/2 cup sugar in a small bowl. Roll dough into 1-inch balls, then roll in sugar to coat. Place balls, 1 inch apart, on two parchment-lined baking sheets. Bake 5 minutes. Remove sheets from oven; with the small end of a melon baller or the bottom of a small round measuring spoon, make an indentation in center of each cookie.
- Bake until cookies are just set but still look moist, 4 minutes (do not overbake). Let cool on sheets on wire racks.
- In a microwave-safe bowl, microwave chocolate chips and 1/4 cup butter in 10-second increments until melted; stir in peppermint extract. Let cool until thick enough to pipe, 5 minutes. Transfer mixture to a large zip-top bag; snip 1/4-inch hole in one corner. Pipe chocolate into cookie indentations. Store in airtight containers, up to 1 week.

CHOCOLATE PEPPERMINT THUMBPRINTS
From the Dec 2008 / Jan 2009 Fine Cooking magazine. Prep time includes chill time for dough. Cookie has a delicate, almost shortbread texture with the hint of mint in the filling balancing the richness of the chocolate.

Steps:
- Make the cookies:.
- Sift the flour and cocoa together into a medium bowl.
- Cream the butter and sugar on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes.
- Add the vanilla and salt; continue beating until blended and smooth, about 1 minute more.
- Add the flour-cocoa mixture and mix on low speed until a soft dough forms, about 1 minute.
- Chill the dough until firm enough to roll into balls, 40 to 60 minutes.
- Heat the oven to 350°F Line cookie sheets with parchment or nonstick baking liners.
- Roll heaping teaspoonfuls of the dough into 1-inch balls.
- Arrange them 2 inches apart on the lined sheets.
- With a lightly floured thumb or index fingertip, press straight down into the middle of each ball almost to the cookie sheet to make a deep well. (Or use the end of a thick-handled wooden spoon.).
- Bake one sheet at a time until the tops of the cookies look dry, 8 to 9 minutes.
- Gently redefine the indentations with the end of a wooden spoon.
- Let the cookies cool on the sheet for 5 minutes and then let them cool completely on racks.
- Make the filling:.
- Put the chocolate and butter in a heatproof bowl set in a wide skillet of almost simmering water.
- Stir with a heatproof spatula until almost melted, 2 to 4 minutes.
- Remove the bowl from the heat and stir until melted and smooth, about 30 seconds more.
- Stir in the mint extract.
- Let the filling cool, stirring occasionally, until slightly thickened and a bit warmer than room temperature, 30 to 40 minutes.
- Spoon the filling into a small pastry bag with a small plain tip. (Or use a small plastic bag and cut a tiny bit off a bottom corner of the bag.)
- Pipe the filling into the center of each cookie.
- Cool completely before serving or storing.
- The cookies will keep in an airtight container at room temperature for 4 to 5 days.

- In a large bowl using a handheld or stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, beat the butter, brown sugar, and 1/3 cup (67g) granulated sugar together on medium-high speed until smooth and creamy, about 2 minutes. Add the egg, vanilla extract, and peppermint extract and beat on high speed until combined, about 1 minute. Scrape down the sides and up the bottom of the bowl and beat again as needed to combine. Pour the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, add the milk, and mix on low until combined. The cookie dough will be thick.
- Roll balls of dough, a little less than 1 Tablespoon each (about 1 inch balls), and roll each into remaining 1/3 cup (67g) granulated sugar. Place dough balls onto a large lined baking sheet. Using your thumb or the end of a spatula (see post above), make an indent into each cookie. If you find that the balls are cracking when you make an indent, use your hands to push back together. (Some cracks are bound to happen as the cookies expand in the oven– see my photos. No worries there!)
- Chill the shaped cookies for at least 2 hours in the refrigerator or 1 hour in the freezer (or up to 4 days in the refrigerator). Cover them if chilling for longer than 3 hours.
