Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.

In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt.

In a large bowl, cream together the butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the egg and peppermint extract.

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix until combined.

Roll the dough into 1-inch balls and place them on the prepared baking sheets. Flatten each ball with the bottom of a glass.

Bake for 10 minutes, or until the edges are set. Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

In a small bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar and milk to make the glaze.

In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the chocolate chips and vegetable shortening in 30-second intervals, stirring until smooth.

Allow the glaze to set before serving.
