I definitely couldn't find "Andes" mints at the local Co-op. So I instead about some other kind of mint chocolate that could be melted on the cookie. I wasn't super happy with the way this turned out. My cookies flattened into a pancake. They still tasted very good and smelled even better. All you smelled when you opened the container was chocolate and mint.
They were still chewy (the way I like them).
The plus about this recipe...easy peasy, nice and easy thanks to a cake mix.
1 Devil's Food Cake Mix
1/2 cup oil
2 eggs
1 package of Andes Mints (or other mint chocolate)
Mix cake mix, oil, and eggs together. Drop spoonfuls of dough onto baking sheet. Bake at 350 degrees for 6-9 minutes. Don't cook any longer than that! You don't want them to be overdone!
Take sheet out of oven and while the cookies are still very hot, place an Andes Mint on top of each cookie. In about 5 minutes, the mint will be melted. Take a spoon and smooth out each mint like frosting.
