Chocolate Mint Tidbit Sugar Cookies
Packaged sugar cookie mix makes these cookies quick & easy. Swirled mint chocolate chips are added, and the dough is shaped & frozen until needed.
* 1 stick (1/2 cup) butter or margarine, cut up
* 1, 17 1/2-ounce package sugar cookie mix
* 1 egg, beaten
* 1 10-ounce package swirled semisweet chocolate mint morsels
In a large microwave proof mixing bowl, place butter or margarine. Heat on high setting until margarine is melted, about 30-45 seconds. Add sugar cookie mix, egg, and chocolate mint morsels; mix well. Form dough into 48 approximately 1-inch size balls. The cookie dough balls can be placed in a covered container and frozen. When ready to bake cookies, heat oven to 350 degrees. Take out desired number of cookie dough balls and place on large cookie sheet. Bake frozen cookie dough balls about 10 minutes or until cookies are lightly brown. Cookie dough balls that are not frozen or that are thawed will take only about 7 minutes to bake until cookies are lightly brown.
Notes: The chocolate mint flavor just might remind you of a favorite Girl Scout cookie. These cookies are easy and delicious. If unexpected guests drop in, you can serve freshly baked Chocolate Mint Tidbit Sugar Cookies in a snap when you have these cookie dough balls ready in your freezer.
Number of servings: 48 cookies
