 I lined a baking sheet with a Silpat liner and then used an ungreased additional baking sheet.
The cookies on the lined pan puffed up but stayed small and soft but the cookies
on the unlined pan spread out more and were flat and had a nice crunch.
 In a bowl mix together cookie mix, butter, extract, food coloring,
 and egg until soft dough forms.
 Roughly chop the Andes mints into small pieces.
    Mix the chocolate chips and the mint pieces into dough.
 Doesn’t this look amazing?!
Using a small scoop, place 12 dough balls on each baking sheet.
Bake at 350 degrees. 
Bake for 8 to 10 minutes.
 Chocolate + Mint = a match made in heaven!
 The perfect melted gooey center!

🍜 We had so much fun celebrating Lunar New Year last weekend with dinner at @pho_85_noodle_house_llc in Bentonville, AR! The Banh Mi sandwich and Beef and Seafood Pho soups were filled with fresh ingredients and flavor packed. As you can see their portions were huge so it's a great place to share! We also tried an appetizer sampler, Thai Tea, Coconut Boba Smoothie (my girls' favorite) and macarons for dessert. Everything was made to order and delicious. The staff was kind and helpful. If you live near by, check them out and #eatlocall ! ❤️ @visitbentonville #Bentonville  #pho85noodlehouse #arkansasfoodie #whatsfordinner #arkansasblogger #supportlocal #bentonvillearkansas #lunarnewyear #chinesenewyear
