Andes Candies Mint Chip Cookies



One week until Christmas! Is everyone ready? Well, just in case you’re looking for a new cookie recipe to try out for your family party or as presents this one just might work for you. It’s simple and is a twist on traditional chocolate chip cookies. While chocolate chip cookies are delicious they aren’t very festive, these cookies on the other hand have a small amount of holiday cheer. Enjoy!


What You’ll Need…

2 ¼ Cups All-purpose Flour
1 Teaspoon Baking Soda
½ Teaspoon Salt
1 Cup (2 sticks) Butter (Softened)
¾ Cup Granulated Sugar
¾ Cup Light Brown Sugar (Packed)
1 Teaspoon Vanilla Extract (Maybe a little extra if you like vanilla.)
2 Eggs
20 Andes Candies Mints (Chopped)

Pre-heat your oven to 375.

Start out by chopping your candy mints, you can also buy Andes Candies Baking Chips if you so choose.

In a medium mixing bowl cream butter, sugars, and vanilla using a hand mixer. Once creamy add the eggs and beat well.

Now add the dry ingredients; flour, baking soda, and salt. Mix until combined.

When the dough comes together set aside the mixer, add the Andes Candies, and mix with a spoon until the candies are distributed throughout the dough.

Scoop dough “balls” of your choice of size onto a greased baking sheet. Bake at 375 for 8-10 minutes.

Allow the baking sheet to sit for about one minute after being removed from the oven before you move the cookies to a cooling rack.

Enjoy by themselves, with a class of milk, or even sandwich two together with a scoop of ice cream in the middle.
