ANDES® MINT COOKIES
Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease 2 baking sheets.
- Beat butter, white sugar, and brown sugar together in a bowl until smooth and creamy. Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in vanilla extract.
- Whisk flour, baking powder, and salt together in a bowl. Gradually add flour mixture to butter mixture until dough is just-combined. Transfer dough to a resealable plastic bag, squeeze out excess air, and seal bag. Refrigerate until dough firms, at least 2 hours.

- Bake in the preheated oven until edges of cookies are golden, 10 to 12 minutes.

ANDES MINT CHIP SOFT FUDGY CHOCOLATE COOKIES
Steps:
- To the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment (or large mixing bowl and electric mixer) combine the butter, sugars, eggs, vanilla, and beat on medium-high speed until creamed and well combined, about 4 minutes. Stop, scrape down the sides of the bowl, and add the pudding mix, cocoa, espresso granules, and beat on low speed until just combined, about 1 minute. Stop, scrape down the sides of the bowl, and add the flour, baking soda, optional salt, and beat on low speed until just combined, about 1 minute. Stop, scrape down the sides of the bowl, and add the Andes chips, chopped chocolate, and beat on low speed until just combined, about 30 seconds. Using a large cookie scoop, 1/4-cup measure, or your hands, form approximately 14 equal-sized mounds of dough. Roll into balls, and flatten slightly. Place mounds on a large plate or tray, cover with plasticwrap, and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, up to 5 days. Do not bake with unchilled dough because cookies will bake thinner, flatter, and be more prone to spreading. Preheat oven to 350F, line a baking sheet with a Silpat or spray with cooking spray. Place dough mounds on baking sheet, spaced at least 2 inches apart (I bake 8 cookies per sheet) and bake for about 10 minutes, or until edges have set and tops are just set, even if slightly undercooked and glossy in the center. Don't overbake which is easy to do with dark cookies. Cookies firm up as they cool. Allow cookies to cool on baking sheet for about 10 minutes before serving. I let them cool on the baking sheet and don't use a rack. Cookies are best warm and fresh, but will keep airtight at room temperature for up to 1 week or in the freezer for up to 6 months. Alternatively, unbaked cookie dough can be stored airtight in the refrigerator for up to 5 days or in the freezer for up to 6 months, so consider baking only as many cookies as desired and save the remaining dough to be baked in the future when desired.

Steps:
- 1. In my opinion you can not have oatmeal cookies without Raisins and nuts, so I added them to this recipe and they are the best I have had in a long time. The hardest part about this recipe is UNWRAPPING ALL OF THE CANDIES.
- 2. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Spray cookie sheet with non stick cooking spray, or use parchment paper, set aside till needed.This is the oat meal that was used in this recipe
- 3. In a large bowl add flour, oatmeal, baking powder, baking soda, & salt then stir to blend. Original recipe said to pulverize mixture in a food processor, but I wanted to keep the texture, and omitted this step.
- 4. In a separate bowl add both sugars and softened butter, and beat till creamy, then add eggs one at a time and beat well after each addition.
- 5. Then add cream liqueur, vanilla & peppermint extract & about 1/3 of flour & beat till blended.
- 6. Add remaining flour mixture in 2 increments,with mixer set to low setting. until all has been added.
- 7. Now add in raisins, nuts and chocolate chunks and stir with a large spoon to mix well.
- 8. Refrigerate till batter is firm. I left batter in fridge till the next morning, then cut dough into large chunk size pieces.
- 9. Place on prepared cookie sheet, and bake in preheated 350 degreeF. oven for 10 to 12 minutes.
- 10. Allow to cool then remove to wire rack to cool completely.
- 11. Serve with cold milk or IRISH COFFEE.
KELLY'S AMAZING ANDES MINT THUMBPRINT COOKIES
This was a cookie recently shared at my friend Donna's annual cookie exchange. Kelly is our friend who brought the cookie that had everyone asking "Who made this?" "Can I have the recipe?" "Are there anymore???". I looked on the Zaar and didn't see any quite like this one. Hope you enjoy this delight. I would caution that you keep these separate from your other cookies otherwise everything will taste minty.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and lightly coat a baking sheet with cooking spray. Sift the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda and salt into a medium bowl and set aside.
- With a hand or stand mixer, cream the butter and both sugars until fluffy. Add the eggs, vanilla and peppermint extracts and mix well.
- Add the dry mixture to the butter mixture and mix well. Stir in the chocolate chips and mint chips.
- Roll the dough into 1 1/2-inch balls and place them on the prepared baking sheet. With two fingers, press the cookies down to about 1 inch thick, keeping the cookies about 2 inches apart.
- Bake for 15 to 18 minutes, or until not glossy. Let the cookies cool on a wire rack.
Tips:
- Use high-quality chocolate: The quality of the chocolate you use will greatly impact the flavor of your cookies. Look for a chocolate that is at least 70% cacao and has a smooth, velvety texture.
- Chill the dough before baking: This will help the cookies to hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much in the oven.
- Bake the cookies at a high temperature: This will help to create a crispy exterior and a chewy interior.
- Let the cookies cool completely before frosting: This will help the frosting to set properly and prevent it from becoming runny.
Conclusion:
Andes Mint Cookies are a delicious and festive treat that is perfect for any occasion. They are easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With their minty flavor and chocolatey goodness, these cookies are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them. So next time you are looking for a sweet treat, give Andes Mint Cookies a try.
