Notes
Enjoy these cookies while they’re warm for the best flavor. Put them in the microwave for 15 seconds to reheat and you’ll get the same melty center.
Make them even more chocolately by using a chocolate chocolate chip cookie dough instead of the regular one!
Store in an airtight container for up to five days, although they probably won’t last that long!
Break the Andes Mint in half and slightly overlap the two in the center of the cookie for easier wrapping.
Top cookies with an Andes Mint while warm for even more delicious flavor, just be prepared – the mint melts quickly and can be a bit messy! If you’re going to do this, just make sure that you have double the amount of mints available before you start!
