I have made these cookies more times than I can remember. I've had good results every time. I will say that mint chips do work better than crushed Andes bars. Also, pay attention to the weight of the cake mix on the box. Some of them have more than 18 oz and will require an extra egg, yielding slightly different (but still tasty) results. -
These were wonderful! Chewy, brownie-like cookies. I didnt use mint chips, I used peanut butter chips. So good! -
I DEFINITELY didn't love this cookie. I thought it was dry and too cakey. I won't be making this one again.

Thank you KaylyRed. I love these cookies. My family said they taste like chocolate mint ice cream and chocolate cake together and I agree. My son declared it the best cookie ever. This is a keeper. Nestle makes Dark chocolate and mint chips and they worked perfectly. I was a little unsure when the tops cracked and the inside looked uncooked but they came out great. Nice and chewy and minty. Bliss with a cup of coffee, cocoa or cold milk. Definitely for those chocolate lovers. Enjoy- we did. ChefDLH -
Big Yummmmm! If you can't find mint chocolate chips, put 1 cup regular chips in a zip lock bag with 1/2 tsp mint extract and let sit overnight.
