We try lots of cookie recipes, but this is one we always come back to every holiday. Hope you enjoy them too - a plateful of these makes a great gift.
FUDGY MINT COOKIES
1-18 ozs. box devil's food cake mix
1/2 cup butter, softened
1 Tbsp. water
2 eggs
1/2 c. powdered sugar
2 pkgs. (5 ozs. each) chocolate-covered thin mints
Preheat oven to 375. In a large mixing bowl, combine the cake mix, butter and water. Add eggs; mix well. Shape into 1-in balls; roll in powdered sugar. Place 2" apart on ungreased baking sheets. Bake 8 - 10 minutes or until set. Immediately press a mint into the center of each cookie. Cool for 2 minutes before removing to wire racks to cool completely Yield: about 3 dozen.
(We like to make them smaller...so it makes more than 3 dozen, and we go through more mints than the recipe calls for) - if making smaller cookies, bake them for a shorter time.

Marsha,
Thank you so much for the little gift bag and the plate of delicious cookies, they were wonderful! Our favorite were by far the strawberry ones that reminded me of the frozen strawberry shortcake bars I use to get from the ice cream truck. :) I must have that recipe!
