Today I tried out making some mint chocolate cookies! I was inspired to make these from a Becky Crocker recipe (here) and due to the lack of ingredients available in the UK, I ended up making my own recipe up. I really wanted to try dying them green like in the recipe but our food colouring was 2 years out of date so I wasn't going to be using that! Here is my step by step guide to making my own version of mint chocolate chip cookies.
 |
You will need Betty Crocker's Milk Chocolate cookie mix
(quantity depending on how much dough you wish to make) and 1 box of mint Matchmakers |
 |
| Empty the cookie mix into a large bowl |
 |
| Cut the Matchmakers into small pieces |
 |
| Add the Matchmakers to the bowl |
 |
| Add 2 tbsp of water per packet to the mix to form a dough. This was the recommended amount but not nearly enough for me to make the cookie dough so I just added water until the dough began to form. |
 |
Make the dough into balls and place on a baking tray. The cookies will expand when baking so make sure there
is plenty of space between each one |
 |
Put cookies in the oven at 190 degrees for 10-12 minutes
|
 |
Leave cookies to cool for as long as necessary and then you can eat them!

I hope you enjoyed today's baking post! I'll be back tomorrow with another gift guide.
