Although this recipe is a bit tedious, I love these and how they melted in my mouth! The few things I did differently were instead of Andi's individually wrapped candy, I used the baking version that is already crushed. Since I doubled the recipe I added the entire package but didn't sprinkle any on top. I also added an tsp {for double batch} of peppermint extract. I also added extra chocolate chips. It wasn't too sweet and it was the perfect combination of chocolate and mint.

I had high hopes for this recipe. I love mint chip ice cream and Andes chocolate mints as well. I was kind of disappointed. I think they are way too sweet, they are too minty (I even omitted the mints on top) and the batter isn't chocolatey enough. I will make them again but next time I'm going to add an extra ounce of unsweetened chocolate, a little less sugar, and no mints at all. I realize they won't be chocolate mint cookies anymore but I think they'll taste great because the base recipe is a good start.

These cookies are wonderful. Next time I make them, I will make them smaller though. I had a hard time getting them done when making them huge like the recipe calls for.
