Prep Time: Cook Time: Total Time:
2-1/2 cups flour
1 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp salt
3/4 cup sugar
3/4 cup brown sugar
1 cup butter, softened
2 eggs
1-1/2 tsp vanilla
3-4 pkgs chocolate mint wafers (I use Andes candies)
Melted chocolate for drizzling
In large bowl, combine all ingredients except mint wafers, and beat at low speed until dough forms. Chill dough at least 2 hours.
Shape about two tsp of dough around each chocolate mint, making sure to cover the candy completely. Smooth edges and place on on ungreased cookie sheets. Bake at 375 degrees for 9 to 12 minutes, until light golden brown. Remove from cookie sheet immediately.
(I like to glaze these with some melted chocolate and top them with some chopped pecans before baking.
To freeze, divide dough into two tsp portions and freeze on a cookie sheet. Package into freezer containers, label, seal, and freeze up to 3 months. To use, let dough stand overnight in the refrigerator. Wrap dough around the mint candy and bake as directed.
