Sorry! Yesterday was my first time on this link and I wasn't sure if I could do it right. Anyway, the recipe is below!
Starlight Mint Surprise Cookies
3 1/4 cups flour
1 teaspoon soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup butter (softened)
1/2 cup shortening
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar (packed)
Andes mints (broken in half)
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla
Walnut halves
Sift together dry ingredients. Set aside. Mix together butter, shortening, sugar & brown sugar. Add eggs, water & vanilla. Add sifted ingredeints. Refrigerate 1 hour. Flour hands & shape dough around mint. Top with walnut half. Bake 10-12 minutes at 325 degrees.
If I am going to bake the next day, I make the dough and
refrigerate overnight.
NOTE: FYI the instructions include adding water but the ingredients does not list the amount. I believe it should be 2 tbls. I have always loved these around Christmas time. - Randy Williams
