Soft and chewy chocolate cookies stuffed with a delicious chocolate covered peppermint patty. The chocolate and peppermint flavors go perfectly together in this cookie. They are perfect for baking this Christmas with friends and family. Everyone will love the surprise peppermint in each cookie.

To make the chocolate cookie dough, it is just like making a classic sugar cookie dough, except cocoa powder is added to the dough. Roll the cookie dough into balls, and flatten each one slightly. Place one peppermint patty candy onto each piece of dough, and roll the cookie dough into balls. Place them onto a large ungreased baking sheet at least 2-inches apart. Bake until the center comes out clean.
