These irresistible Giant Peppermint Chocolate Fudge Cookies are thick, fudgy and filled with the classic holiday combination of chocolate and peppermint!
Two cookie recipes in two weeks! I think that might be a record for me and my usual cookie avoidance. Though, after thinking up this recipe a while ago, I just couldn’t get it off my mind.
I’m so glad I overcame my typical aversion to cookie making and made more cookies. These giant peppermint chocolate fudge cookies were even better than I thought they would be!
Sometimes you just have to go all out with dessert. These cookies start by melting together butter and chocolate chips. Then you add in more chocolate.
I used a combination of semi-sweet and dark chocolate chips, but if you prefer milk and white chocolate, feel free to use whatever you like best! Completely decadent and rich.
And giant. Each cookie is made up of a heaping 1/4 cup of cookie dough! You don’t have to make them so big, but, in my experience, giant cookies usually taste better! 😉
These cookies are best warm from the oven. Make sure you wait long enough so you don’t burn your fingers, but as soon as they’re cool enough, dig in!
The warm, gooey chocolate gives the cookies a fudgy texture that pairs perfectly with a big glass of milk or a mug of coffee!

Woow, the cookies look absolutely amazing…so big, crunchy and heart-filling, crunchy! I am definitely going to try this out for my next family gathering this holiday season. A combination of chocolate and peppermint is my favorite anyways, and the addition of chocolate chips just takes it to a whole new level altogether. A big thumbs up for the presentation and photography, as well as the success of the recipe. My cookies tend to get all crumbly and messy, but these look perfect, just like the store-brought ones! Thank you so much for sharing the details of the recipe.
