I love mint chocolate chip ice cream. I saw a photo posted on Facebook recently of mint chocolate chip cookies and I thought, "That's clever. I've never seen that before!" Also, I found out that a little girl, Isabella (aka Chef Bella), made these cookies all by herself! I knew if she could do it, I could do it - so I emailed her mommy for the recipe. Here it is:
Ingredients:
1 pouch (1 lb 1.5 oz) Betty Crocker sugar cookie mix
1/2 cup butter or margarine, softened
1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon mint extract
6 to 8 drops green food color
1 egg
1 cup creme de menthe baking chips
1 cup semisweet chocolate chunks
Directions
Heat oven to 350°F. In large bowl, stir cookie mix, butter, extract, food color and egg until soft dough forms. I couldn't find any creme de menthe baking chips (I looked in two stores and gave up after that) so I just used chocolate chips instead. Using small cookie scoop or teaspoon, drop dough 2 inches apart on ungreased cookie sheet. Bake 8 to 10 minutes or until set. Cool 3 minutes; remove from cookie sheet to wire rack. Serve warm or cool completely. Store tightly covered at room temperature.
