Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 pouch betty crocker sugar cookie mix
1/2 c butter, softened
1/2 tsp mint extract
1/4 tsp green food coloring
1 large egg
1 c andes crème de menthe baking chips or broken up andes crème de menthe candies (make small pieces)
1 c semisweet chocolate chunks

Steps:

  • 1. NOTE: If you can find Andes Crème de Menthe baking chips they work best. If you cannot find them at your local grocery store you can still make this recipe by breaking up Andes candies. To break up Andes Crème de Menthe candies , unwrap COLD candies, place in a plastic bag, and pound them with a heavy object, breaking them into small pieces.
  • 2. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Mix cookie mix, butter, extract, food color and egg in a bowl. Stir until soft dough forms. Stir in broken up ANdes candies and chocolate chunks. Form small balls of dough, about 2 inch in diameter, and place them 2 inches apart on ungreased cookie sheets. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes. Cool 3 minutes. Store tightly covered at room temperature

Tips:

  • For a more intense mint flavor, use fresh mint leaves instead of extract.
  • If you don’t have buttermilk, you can make your own by adding 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar to 1 cup of regular milk. Let it sit for 5 minutes before using.
  • To make sure your cake is evenly cooked, insert a toothpick into the center. If it comes out clean, the cake is done.
  • Let the cake cool completely before frosting it. This will help the frosting to set properly.
  • For a fun variation, try adding some chocolate chips to the batter before baking.

Conclusion:

Green mint chip cake is a delicious and refreshing dessert that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be enjoyed by people of all ages. With its moist, fluffy texture and sweet, minty flavor, this cake is sure to be a hit at your next party or gathering. So, what are you waiting for?
