In reply to David Hendrix.

Including the ingredients needed after each step is extremely helpful and one of the reasons that these recipes are foolproof.
And there is no need to be so rude.

We don’t see why not! Just make sure to wrap them really well and store in an airtight container.

In family, my wife does the cooking and I do the the baking. The family loved these cookies. Your recipes with the video are excellent. Thank you for sharing them.

Good thing you cared so much! It was this cookie: https://sugarspunrun.com/mint-chocolate-chip-cookies/. The Mint Chocolate Chip cookies. I’m so sorry!

Thank you Sam. You are very thoughtful. I think I will skip it for now. I appreciate your kindness. : )

If your oven is running hotter than it says, baking for the indicated time may end up being too long. But since you mentioned they were pale I am curious if maybe it was something else…

Hmm, how did you measure the flour? If they didn’t look or taste like they were supposed to it makes me wonder if something was measured wrong (it happens to all of us!)? I would like to help figure this out!

They were also very pale in color. I made sure to measure the flour accurately.

I followed the cooking time and let them cool on the cookie sheet like you explained. If it takes more work to check on my oven temperature, …. that’s too much effort for me. Thank you though!

Aw, unfortunately if they were dry either too much flour was used or the cookies were baked too long 🙁 I would try baking a tad less time, they definitely shouldn’t be dry when done properly. Centers should be moist, soft, and borderline fudgy (you can see the centers in the pics). Also check that your oven isn’t running too hot, that could do it too. If it’s helpful, I have a video tutorial that shows exactly how everything should look at every step (in the recipe card).

I followed the recipe, and added 6 ounces more of chocolate chips. But it was DRY. The cookie is more doughy. You need to drink something when you eat these. The Andes mint candy flavor is good. But the cookie is too dry to make this recipe again. I think I’ll us my toll house recipe and add cut Andes candies added to it. I liked chilling the dough and rolling it into balls for a rounder cookie. I’ll do that with other recipes.

I ran out of ganache with a few cookies to go – perhaps I was a bit generous – but otherwise these are exactly as described! Delicious! Thanks for developing!

Hi Janice! They aren’t necessarily supposed to puff much, so it doesn’t sound like anything went wrong 🙂

I’m glad you enjoyed them, Tracy! If that happens again and you need to thin it out a bit you can just add a splash of milk or cream. 🙂

I made these yesterday and they are delicious! The frosting was too thick for me to pipe (broke the bag), so I just used the back of a spoon to smooth it out and it worked out perfectly with the ganache on top. I’m excited to make these again for St. Patrick’s Day. Thank you for sharing!!

Hi David! You’re the first person who has said they don’t like seeing this, most people have said it is helpful. I’m open to more feedback on this, but most people seem to like it.
