Chocolate Mint Cookies
1 1/2 packed brown sugar
3/4 c. butter
2 T. & 1 1/2t. water
2 c. Chocolate Chips
2 eggs
1 1/4 t. baking soda

3 pkgs (4.67 oz.) Andes Mint or one large bag

In a heavy sauce pan combine sugar, butter, and water. Cook and stir over low heat until butter melted & mixture smooth. Remove from heat and add chocolate chips. Transfer to a bowl and let stand 10 minutes. With mixer on high speed , add eggs one at a time to chocolate mixture, beating after each addition. Combine dry ingridents, add to chocolate mixture, beating until blended. Cover and refrigerate 8hrs or overnight.
Roll dough in 1 inch balls. Place 3 inches apart on lightly greased sheet. Bake at 350 degrees for 11 to 12 minutes or until edges are set and top puffs and cracks. Immediately top with a mint. Let stand 1-2 minutes and spread over cookie. If the cookis is smaller, I broke the mint in half.
