Best Simply Delicious Minty Cookies Recipes

CHOCOLATE MINT COOKIES I

Steps:

• In a large pan over low heat, cook butter, sugar and water until butter is melted. Add chocolate chips and stir until partially melted. Remove from heat and continue to stir until chocolate is completely melted. Pour into a large bowl and let stand 10 minutes to cool off slightly.
• At high speed, beat in eggs, one at a time into chocolate mixture. Reduce speed to low and add dry ingredients, beating until blended. Chill dough about 1 hour.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Roll dough into balls and place on ungreased cookie sheet about 2 inches apart. Bake 8-10 minutes. While cookies are baking unwrap mints and divide each in half. When cookies are brought out of the oven, put 1/2 mint on top of each cookie. Let the mint sit for up to 5 minutes until melted, then spread the mint on top of the cookie. Eat and enjoy!

MINT CHOCOLATE PUDDING COOKIES

Steps:

• Start by preheating the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Then, line a baking sheet with parchment paper or spray with non-stick cooking spray, set aside.
• Begin by creaming together the sugar and butter, in a large bowl, until nice and fluffy.
• Then, add in the egg, sour cream and dry pudding mix, stir well to combine.
• Next, in a separate small bowl, combine the flour, salt and baking soda.
• After that, incorporate the flour mixture into the butter and pudding mixture and stir until well combined.
• Now, add the mint extract and food coloring until desired color is achieved.
• Lastly, add in the chocolate chips. I used 3/4 cup chocolate chunks, 3/4 cup regular chocolate chips and 1/2 cup Andes baking bits. Any combination is wonderful, but note that while the Andes mint baking pieces add an incredible flavor, they kind of disappear in the cookies. So add them in addition to the 11/2 cups chocolate chips, if you opt to put them in!
• Start dropping the cookie dough by the rounded tablespoonfuls onto the prepared baking sheet.
• Then, bake for 10 minutes.
• When done baking, transfer to a cooling rack.
• Serve fresh and warm, enjoy!

• Drop by rounded teaspoonfuls of dough 2 inches apart onto un-greased baking sheet. Or onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
• Bake 8-10 minutes or until lightly browned. (Depending on your oven)Cool 2-5 minutes on baking sheet before removing to a cooling rack.
• **Because this is a dense dough made with cream cheese instead of eggs, it does not spread out flat.
• ***NOTE: I store them in an air tight container in the fridge after they have cooled. Tastes even better the next day. And they freeze well if you choose to freeze them.
