bobthemolePer my brother's request, I made Mint Chocolate cookies. Used this recipe by Martha Stewart for Dark-Chocolate Cookies, left out the espresso powder, replaced the molten chocolate with molten Tollhouse semi-sweet chips and the chocolate chunks with mint non-pareils, and added chopped walnuts. Oh, and vanilla bean instead of extract.
Verdict: Deliciously rich and chocolatey but sweeter than perfect, and the chocolate overpowered the mint. I'll definitely try these again but stick to bitter-sweet chocolate for the melt, and add a teaspoon of mint extract.
Major challenge: Mailing these to my brother before I eat them all.
