Dark Chocolate Mint Cookies
Dark Chocolate Mint Cookies are awesome. These lovely cookies begin with a favorite copycat recipe for Mrs. Field's Chocolate Chip Cookies and swap out Nestle's Delightfulls Dark Chocolate Mint Chips for regular chocolate chips. Excellent choice for tailgating parties, potlucks, backyard barbecues and sporting events like the Super Bowl, March Madness & the NBA Finals. Amazing and mouthwatering!
