This is a cookie that wants to be a peppermint patty. Ok, not quite because it has a crunch factor. But peppermint and chocolate have both been represented; then there is a crispy cookie involved. I hope you like it.
1 stick butter
1/3 cup sugar
1 tablespoon basil, minced
1 tablespoon mint, diced
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 teaspoon mint extract
3/4 teaspoon baking powder
1 egg
1 1/2 cup flour
1/2 cup dark chocolate chips
