Mint Chocolate Chip Cookies created by Sparkle 1874

I am not the greatest mint lover but even I have to admit that the fusion of mint and chocolate will silence the toughest critic. This recipe from "Hershey's Kitchen" will satisfy the strongest chocolate craving while leaving a refreshing aftertaste. (This cookie can be made with any flavour chips and all by itself).

Made them as *Mahogany suggested. They were good. The trays that I didn't keep in for ten minutes were softer and better. I would suggest 7 or 8 mins.

This was an easy recipe and the dough was easy to work with. The cookies kept their shape. My only disappointment was that there was not enough chocolate flavor in these cookies. The mint was overpowering and not balanced with chocolate. Next time I will put less chips in or more cocoa.

Delicious! I like my cookies crispy and thinner, so I let them go a little longer and used convection for the last 5 min. Rave reviews all round :)

Just what I was looking for! Spot on temperature and baking time (made mine on the small side and 9 min. was perfect). Just the right balance of chocolate and mint without being heavy either way. Served at St. Patrick's Day Potluck Dinner.

Excellent! We picked some of the new mint filled dark chocolate chip morsels & decided to used them in this recipe with excellent results. I did reduce the granulated sugar by a quarter cup & they were plenty sweet. I could see using this recipe with peanut butter chips in the future. Thanks for sharing!
