Nothing is more refreshing than a cookie recipe with a touch of mint?
Ingredients:
2 1/2 cups flour
1/2 tsp. salt
2 tsp. baking powder
1/2 cup shortening, creamed
1 cup sugar
1 egg
2 oz. baking chocolate
1/4 cup evaporated milk
Peppermint Patties
Combine flour, salt & baking powder until well mixed; set aside. Add sugar to the creamed shortening and mix well. Stir egg into shortening mixture, then melt baking chocolate and stir it into creamed mixture until well mixed. Add milk and dry ingredients alternately until well blended, then form into a roll about 1 1/2- 2 inches in diameter and chill for several hours or overnight. Prior to baking, cut into thin slices and bake on a greased cookie sheet at 400 degrees for about 12 minutes. Place a Peppermint Pattie between two cooled cookies.
Do you have a chocolate mint recipe to share?
