CRèME DE MENTHE STUFFED CHOCOLATE COOKIES
These cookies are intensely chocolatey with a slight mocha flavor from the espresso powder. That paired with the cool mint of the candies makes these a delectable mint mocha treat. And let's face it, anything stuffed with a little piece of candy has to be amazing, right?
