Mint Chocolate Chip Cookies

I'm a BIG fan of anything minty and chocolately, and the fact that it surrounds us this time of year makes me a very happy girl! Here is a recipe I found in a magazine and thought I'd give a try this past Christmas season.

1 pouch Betty Crocker sugar cookie mix

1/2 cup butter, softened

1/4-1/2 tsp. mint extract

8 drops green food coloring

1 egg

1 cup semisweet chocolate chips

Heat oven to 350°F. 

In large bowl, stir cookie mix, butter, extract, food color and egg until soft dough forms.

Stir in chocolate chunks. 

Drop dough 2 inches apart on ungreased cookie sheet.

Bake 8 to 10 minutes or until set. Cool 3 minutes.

Enjoy!

Do we really have to wait for them to cool??
