Andes Creme de Menthe Chunk Cookies

I love chocolate chip cookies, add mint and you have something even more wonderful. There is nothing quite as good as a cookie warm out of the oven with melting chocolate mint goodness.  This recipe actually comes off the back of Andres Creme de Menthe baking chips.

Ingredients

1/2 cup salted butter - softened
3/4 cup dark brown sugar
1/2 cup white granulated sugar
1 tsp. baking soda
1 tsp. baking powder
2 tsp. vanilla extract
2 eggs
1 package (10 oz) Andes Creme de Menthe baking chips
2 2/3 cups sifted all purpose flour

Instructions

Blend butter, sugars, baking soda, baking powder, vanilla and eggs until mixed.
Stir in Andes chips and then flour.
Chill approximately one hour in refrigerator.
Measure out approximately 1 oz. of dough (I use a small cookie scoop). 
Form ball a ball and slightly flatten.
Raise oven rack one level about middle and bake on a non-stick baking pan or on parchment paper. Bake at 350 degrees for 8-10 minutes.  For soft cookies do not over bake. 
Cool on pans for two minutes before removing.

Makes about 4 dozen cookies.
