Anyway, Chablis and I wanted to share another really yummy cookie recipe with y'all. I originally got the recipe from my sister, and we just modified it just a bit, but if you like sugary, flaky cookies stuffed with chocolate mint candy, then you will probably want to read this post....
2 cups flour
2 sticks UNSALTED butter
1/3 cup half and half OR whipping cream
Some sugar in a bowl
30 - 36 thin mint wafers - We use the Andes Candies......
In a large mixer bowl combine the flour, butter and half & half. Beat at low speed for about 2 minutes. Cover dough and chill for about 2 hours.
Then roll out your dough on a floured surface, to about 1/4" thickness and cut with 2" round cookie cutters.
Dip both sides of each 2" round in some sugar. Place on a cookie sheet and lay 1 mint on each. Fold in half and pinch the edges....
Bake at 400 degrees for 8 - 10 min. or until the edges are lightly browned....
Let them cool and then quickly hide them because I guarantee they are not going to lay around in your cookie jar for long. These are ummm....uummmmm..... goood!!
Oh my. I now want these for breakfast. I may have to hit the store at lunch and pick up a bag of Andes so I can make these tonight. YUM!
ReplyDeleteOh no I'm done for! These look so yummy...and I just happen to have all of the ingredients. These would be fun to make when Gwyn and Brady are visiting :)
ReplyDeleteThe yummy recipe made me forget to add that my house is small too, and I'm ready to clean up some of this mess! I agree...bring on the New Year!
ReplyDeleteMy decorations come down on Jan 2nd. It's a compromise with my mom who would leave them up till Valentine's Day (her personal best) if I let her. xo
ReplyDeleteThese look easy enough for me to make!
ReplyDeleteI'll give them a try! yum!!! Thanks for sharing.
Happy New Year!!!!
xxxooo

Oh man, going to HAVE to mke these!
ReplyDeleteyum....but i'm so lazy and kitchen illiterate...i wonder if you could do this with sugar cookies {the slice and bake kind} and fool your family :)
ReplyDeleteoh yum! They look so good. But I am (unfortunately) not going to make them....time to get back on track! So tempting though.
ReplyDeleteHi Kim!
ReplyDeletethought I'd stop by and say thanks for all your delightful visits!
what an easy recipe! gotta share this with my chocoholic sis..
I'm not much of a cookie baker!
hope your season is keeping you busy!
my tree and all usually come down before New Years..
I'm getting help this year tho..for obvious reasons!
warmest hugs..
Loui♥
Those look delicious! :o)
ReplyDeleteYou've already taken down your Christmas decorations?! But it's not over!!! Ever heard of the "12 Days of Christmas"? You're not supposed to take them down until January 6th, the Epiphany or 3 King's Day! (in Spain it's considered bad luck, we usually take them down on the 7th)
Those cookies look so yummy! Yes, I'm like you. Once Christmas is over, I want the tree down and my house back to normal.
ReplyDeletehuuummmm!!! and they look so easy! I think I could even make those and not mess them up..... maybe.
ReplyDeleteI didn't see any of those at Mom's on Christmas...
