Andes Mint Fudge Cookies

Andes mint cookies topped with fudge & crushed Andes mints = absolutely delicious (especially for the mint chocolate chip lover)!

What You’ll Need

• 2 Sticks Butter
• 1 Cup Sugar
• 3/4 Cup Sugar
• 2 Eggs
• 2 Tbsp Mint Extract
• 4 Drops Green Food Coloring (use Matcha Powder for a natural coloring) optional
• 1 Tsp Baking Soda
• Pinch of Salt
• 3 Cups Flour
• 1 Cup Crushed Andes Mint
• Fudge
• Andes Mints

How To Make ’em

1. Preheat your oven to 350.
2. Add the butter, sugar, & brown sugar into a mixer and whip on medium speed until completely combined.
3. Add in the eggs, mint extract, & food coloring on low speed.
4. Add in baking soda, salt, and flour 1 cup at a time.
5. Once everything is completely combined, add in the crushed Andes mints and use a spatula to fold them in.
6. Line or grease your baking sheets and use a cookie scoop or spoon to scoop your dough onto the cookie sheets, spacing your cookies about 2-3″ apart.
7. Bake at 350 for about 12 minutes.
8. Once your cookies are done take them off of the baking sheet and lay them on a cooling rack or towel.
9. Once your cookies are cool add a spoonful of fudge to the top and either lay a whole Andes mint on top or crush some and sprinkle them on top!

I highly recommend eating these warm or room temp. I personally store these in the fridge and then put one in the microwave for about 8-10 seconds when I’m ready to eat!

Tip for baking: When you are baking you want the cookies to look slightly golden on the edges but soft in the middle so when you pull them out of the oven leave them on the tray to set up for a few minutes before you transfer them to a cooling rack or a towel.
