This is a true treasure, and I do not even like chocolate cookies. Not enough words to describe how good they are, but for starters, they taste like a store bought mint chocolate candy. I did not have mint chocolate chips, so I used mint extract in place of the vanilla, and it worked beautifully. I also rolled them into balls and flattened slightly before baking, and they came out in the most perfect circle, and the tatse is superb.I am making these for my Christmas goodie trays, but I know they will not make it into the freezer after the kids get sight of them.I will definately whip up another batch right after I get these done because I have to let my family devour these.Thank you so much for this wonderful cookie recipe.

This cookie is Fantastic! I used the Andes Mint Chunks, melted about half of the 10 ounce bag in the microwave and stirred in the rest. I also used all brown sugar and Butter Flavored Crisco for the butter and they were great. Thanks for sharing a great mint cookie!

Yummy! These cookies are fantastic - soft and delicious! I couldn't find mint chocolate chips so I used about 8 or 9 pepperminy patties and the rest regular chocolate chips and these were still fantastic! I bet they'd be even more minty with the right chocolate chips. My roomates LOVED these! Thanks Dannygirl!

Yummy!! We really enjoyed these cookies - crunchy on the outside, chewy on the inside. Perfect amount of mint flavour! (Mint chocolate chips are hard to find around here but I will be making these cookies whenever I can find them!!)

These are minty and chewy. I melted the mint chips in a glass measuring cup in the microwave at 50% power for 2 minutes. This made less dishes to wash. Great cookie!

These are amazing! They taste like the mint girl scout cookies! I used all brown sugar, Andes mint chocolate pieces and left out the nuts. These would be great to make ice cream sandwiches with. Thanks for the recipe!

This is a great recipe! I made a couple of changes: I used 1/4 cup of egg substitute instead of an egg, all brown sugar, and I added 1/4 cup of cocoa just to make the cookies a bit more chocolate-y. I thought they might be too minty, but they weren't - they were perfect! Thanks for sharing - I will use this recipe from now on!

Like @ngdarlen, I didn't have mint chocolate chips (and can't ever find them at the grocery store--where does everyone else get them?!) so I used mint extract. I put it in the chocolate as I was melting it and put a little more into the batter. They are great! They break apart easily but are soft. Thanks!

I had some mint chocolate chips, and was looking for a recipe to use them, came across this one and decided to try it. So I made these on 4/07/09. Instead of melting the chips over the stove the microwave was used, it was alot quicker.After mixing the batter together, I had to do a " taste test "
the batter had a very strong mint taste. I thought "Uh Oh, these are going to have a really strong minty taste.Well after baking I ate one, and the mint taste "was right on the money " not too strong and not too mild.If these are made again, I'm leaving out the walnuts. For me they just didn't work well.Thanks for posting and,"Keep Smiling
