How do you Christmasfy a plain old chocolate chip cookie? Substitute Andes mints! Don't you love those? And now there are Andes baking chips, little nuggets of mint and chocolately goodness already chopped up for you. These cookies, although not fancy by any means, taste just like Christmas. And they are a good option if you have folks in your family who can't abide (why? I don't know...) some of the fancier Christmas cookies on the plate.

I recently started sharing recipes on The Jenny Evolution and thought it would be terrific to have a group on FB where we can share our recipes not just with other bloggers but with people who are searching out recipes. That said, I'm launching a Food Blogger group! If we work together we can make this a great outlet for all of us. If you'd like to join, visit me here https://www.facebook.com/groups/341455112700743/
