Found this recipe in an old cook book some time ago. This is the perfect cookie for late summer - the fresh mint has a wonderful cooling effect. I finally found the mint chocolate chips at Trader Joe's. The fruit pectin is optional, but really helps to give the cookies extra chewiness and extends their shelf life by several days.
