How To Make mintywiches
-
Step 1Combine butter, sugar, and egg in a large mixing bowl and beat until light and creamy. Blend in melted chocolate chips and corn syrup.
-
Step 2Sift together flour, baking soda and salt. Stir into chocolate mixture. Chill several hours or overnight.
-
Step 3Using rounded 1/4 teaspoon of dough, shape into a ball and roll in granulated sugar. Repeat for all dough and place cookies on ungreased cookie sheets. Bake at 350 degrees for 10-12 minutes. Remove each batch from oven and let stand just a few seconds. DO NOT COOL. Turn half of each batch upside down and top with a mint candy half. Top with a second cookie. Place in the freezer on a flat tray or cookie sheet to harden.
-
Step 4HINT: This dough becomes sticky and hard to manage at room temperature. Return remaining dough to the refrigerator between batches.
