I am a sucker for the new or limited edition candy and food. While walking around the grocery store last time I spotted this bag of dark chocolate and mint chips. Hummm, I hate mint, but Adam likes mint, and it’s something new, into the cart they went.
I decided to just go with the recipe from the back of the bag, Adam, my co-workers and his co-workers raved about them, loving them. I guess I need to buy a few more bags of chips to keep so I can make them later again.
Mint Chocolate Delights (From: Nestle)
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2/3 cup baking cocoa
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup (2 sticks) butter or margarine, softened
- 2/3 cup granulated sugar
- 2/3 cup packed brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 large eggs
- 1 2/3 cups (10-oz. pkg.) Nestle dark chocolate and mint morsels
Preheat oven to 325° F.
Combine flour, cocoa, baking soda and salt in small bowl. Beat butter, granulated sugar, brown sugar and vanilla extract in large mixer bowl until creamy. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Gradually beat in flour mixture. Stir in morsels. Drop by well-rounded tablespoon onto ungreased baking sheets.
Bake for 11 to 13 minutes or until cookies are puffed and centers are set. Cool on baking sheets for 2 minutes; remove to wire racks to cool completely.

I don’t love mint and chocolate, but the hubs does! And like you, sometimes I make things especially for him.
