My dad sandwiches mint patties between two tender chocolate cookies to create these chewy treats. The blend of chocolate and mint is a big hit at our house. Best of all, these cookies are easy and fun to make. -Christina Burbage, Spartanburg, South Carolina Ingredients:
1-1/4 cups butter, softened |
2 cups sugar |
2 eggs |
2 teaspoons vanilla extract |
2 cups king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour |
3/4 cup baking cocoa |
1 teaspoon baking soda |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
32 round thin chocolate-covered mint patties |
Directions:
1. In a bowl, cream butter and sugar. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in vanilla. Combine the flour, cocoa, baking soda and salt; gradually add to the creamed mixture, beating until well combine.
2. Drop by tablespoonfuls 2 in. apart onto ungreased baking sheets. Bake at 350° for 8-9 minutes or until puffy and tops are cracked. Invert half of the cookies onto wire racks. Immediately place a mint patty on each, then top with remaining cookies. Press lightly to seal. Cool completely. Yield: 32 sandwich cookies.
