Tips:

Use high-quality ingredients. This will make a big difference in the taste of your cookies. Use real butter, not margarine, and use good-quality chocolate and mint extract.
Don't overmix the dough. Overmixing will make the cookies tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
Chill the dough before baking. This will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
Bake the cookies at the right temperature. If you bake them at too high a temperature, they will burn. If you bake them at too low a temperature, they will be undercooked.
Let the cookies cool completely before frosting them. This will help the frosting set properly.
