Ingredient Notes
- Butter is the base of our cookies – it adds richness and moisture to our cookies. I use salted, but use whatever you have on hand.
- I like brown sugar in this recipe because it creates a chewy cookie – feel free to swap granulated sugar if that’s what you have.
- Egg holds our cookies together.
- Vanilla enhances the flavor of the chocolate and mint.
- Flour gives our cookies structure. These are a thin and crisp cookies – if you prefer thicker and chewier cookie, increase the amount of flour to 1 1/2 cups.
- Baking soda helps ensure the cookies are soft and chewy but don’t rise too much.
- Chopped Andes mints are our filling of choice in these cookies. Feel free to use any kind of candy you like.
