These cookies have been on the back-burner for a while now.  I really wanted to make them because I am a sucker for chewy chocolate things.  And mint is fabulous, as long as it’s not peppermint because that is too close to toothpaste for me.  So these cookies are perfect!  But I will admit, the first bite I took immediately hit me like it’s a Christmas cookie & I should have waited longer to make it.  Now I kind of want Christmas to come.  Okay, not really, but it would be perfect for Christmas, so hold on to this one for neighbor gifts!

  1. Look at how great your photos are! Good job 🙂 Also, as soon as I saw these I immediately thought of Christmas too! I’m not nearly ready to even remotely start thinking of the holidays though… it will be here before we know it!!

    • Thanks Yvonne! My photography is improving gradually 🙂 And it was totally unintentional to start thinking of holidays so soon. I just wanted to try these & it’s the first thing that popped into my head when I bit into it! Haha!
