Chocolate Mint Cookies
Ingredients | Instructions |
| In large saucepan over low heat, cook butter, sugar, and water until butter melts. Add chocolate chips and stir until melted, removing from heat while partially melted. Stir until smooth. Pour into large mixing bowl and let stand ten minutes to cool slightly. With mixer at high speed, beat in eggs one at a time. Reduce speed to low and add dry ingredients, beating just until blended. Chill dough about one hour for easier handling. Roll one tsp. into a ball (I have a mini-ice cream scoop that works well) on cookie sheet 2” apart. These cookies are very small (think fifty cent piece). Bake at 350 for 7 minutes only. Cookies will crisp as they cool. Remove from oven and immediately place 1/2 mint on each cookie. After a few minutes, swirl mint over cookie and cool completely. Makes 80-100 cookies. Freezes well. |
