Tips:
- Use fresh mint leaves for the best flavor.
- If you don't have buttermilk, you can make your own by adding 1 tablespoon of white vinegar or lemon juice to 1 cup of regular milk and letting it sit for 5 minutes.
- Be sure to chill the dough before baking for at least 30 minutes. This will help the cookies hold their shape.
