Mint Chocolate Chip Cookies

Tis the season for cookies! I ate a whole box too many girl scout cookies this week. Then last night I decided to make mint chocolate chip cookies for my fellow teachers at school!


They were delicous! And so easy to make! Not to mention perfect for St. Patty's Day!

WRITE THIS DOWN (because I know you'll want to make these):

1 pouch Betty Crocker sugar cookie mix
1/2 c. butter
1/4-1/2 tsp. mint extract (I used a whole teaspoon; taste test to see what you prefer)
6-8 drops green food coloring (you can add more to make them green-er)
1 egg
1 c. semi-sweet chocolate chips

1. Combine cookie mix, butter, extract, food coloring and egg until soft dough forms. Stir in chocolate chips.
2. Drop 2 inches apart on ungreased sheet
3. Bake at 350 for 8-10 minutes
4. Don't eat all of them because people have to taste your delicious masterpiece. Or do.



Love these! Everyone should make them!

DON'T FORGET: you can still link up to this week's Ten Buck Tuesday!

  1. One of my favorite flavor combinations ever. I need to try this with orange extract and chocolate chips, maybe add some orange zest. Thanks for the yummy eye candy (or cookie:)
