KELLY'S AMAZING ANDES MINT THUMBPRINT COOKIES
This was a cookie recently shared at my friend Donna's annual cookie exchange. Kelly is our friend who brought the cookie that had everyone asking "Who made this?" "Can I have the recipe?" "Are there anymore???". I looked on the Zaar and didn't see any quite like this one. Hope you enjoy this delight. I would caution that you keep these separate from your other cookies otherwise everything will taste minty.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- In large bowl, beat 1 cup butter and powdered sugar on medium speed until fluffy. Beat in peppermint extract, egg yolks and food coloring until blended. On low speed beat in flour, baking powder and salt.
- Shape dough into 1-inch balls, place 2 inches apart on cookie sheets. Using end of handle of wooden spoon, press a deep well into center of each cookie.
- Bake 10-12 minutes until set. Reshape wells with end of wooden spoon.
- Cool completely-15 minutes.
- In medium microwavable bowl, place chocolate chips, cream and butter on high 1 minute or until mixture looks melted but not too hot.
- Fill each well with about 1 teaspoon mixture-wait about 10 minutes until chocolate mixture is slightly cooled down then garnish w/candy piece-you may need to test candy before inserting all of them.
- Let stand 1 hour until chocolate is set.
Tips:
- Use high-quality chocolate. The better the chocolate, the better the cookies will taste. Look for chocolate with a cocoa content of at least 70%.
- Chill the dough before baking. This will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
- Don't overmix the dough. Overmixing will make the cookies tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Bake the cookies at a high temperature. This will help the cookies set quickly and prevent them from becoming dry.
- Let the cookies cool completely before frosting them. This will help the frosting set properly.

These mint thumbprint double chocolate chunk cookies are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion. They are sure to be a hit with your family and friends. So next time you're looking for a sweet treat, give these cookies a try. You won't be disappointed!
