1 pouch of Betty Crocker sugar cookie mix
1/2 c butter, softened
1/2 tsp mint extract
7 drops green food coloring
1 egg
1 c creme de menth baking chips
1 c semisweet or dark chocolate chips (I used a combination)
Mix the cookie mix, butter, mint extract, green food color and egg in a bowl until a soft dough forms.
Make sure the food coloring is well incorporated. The dough should be a uniform green color.
Add in the baking chips and chocolate chips and stir until well combined. Use a teaspoon to drop dough two inches apart on a lightly greased cookie sheet.
Bake at 350 degrees for 8-10 minutes. You want to catch the cookies before they turn brown so keep an eye on them after 8 minutes. Let the cookies cool for three minutes and then place on a wire rack to cool.
Oh!! This is my hubbies favorite, the mint! I need to make some. :) Your little guys are so cute!!

Coming over from: http://chasing2monkeys.blogspot.com
think I might make these cookies. Mint Chocolate Chip is a family favorite. glad I stopped by.
These were yummo! I couldn’t find the Andes creme de menthe chips, so just used all chocolate. They still came out super delicious! (I added extra mint extract just to be safe.) Thanks for the recipe!

Thank you Shelley!
Mmmm, mint chocolate chip is a weakness for me. Definitely have to make these. They look so good.
Me too :) Thanks for stopping by Mel!
lovely, sending them to my sons squadron overseas.
About how many cookies does this make? I am making some for a party, and need to know.
Thanks!
2-3 dozen depending on how big you make them – enjoy!
I’m wondering how these survive the freezer…have you ever froze any of these?
I haven’t but I would just freeze dough balls if you haven’t made them yet. Good luck and Merry Christmas!
Could you use actually andes mints cut up or choppped up intead of the chips?
I think you could Jen! That sounds wonderful!
Pinned! Thanks for another fantastic recipe, Trish!! Hope you’re enjoying a wonderful weekend! :)
