    Chocolate and mint is one of my favorite combinations of ingredients! And in my book, a sandwich cookie counts a single cookie–always. 😉

    Did not turn out at all 🙁 makes me so sad to waste good ingredients. The Frosting was way too watery and took well over 3 cups of powdered sugar to get a thicker consistency. The cookies themselves spread and ran all over my cookie sheets. I made sure to follow the recipe to a T (I am very careful when trying new recipes) The cookies (that I was able to salvage) also taste very bland…not sure where I went wrong. Bummer!

      Bummer! Did you use margarine or butter? Butter will make them spread more. And did you add extra flour? I had to add more flour to make them so that I could roll them into balls.
