Mint chocolate has always been my favorite and these awesome Mint Chocolate Andes Cookies don’t disappoint. They are some of my favorite cookies and a recipe you have to try soon. This Mint Chocolate Chip Cookie recipe is easy to make for a great treat!
Mint chocolate is a favorite of mine. Favorite cookie, ice cream, candy, you name it! My husband isn’t as big of a fan as I am, but I think I won him over with these cookies. They are simple to make and taste so yummy! These make the perfect Christmas cookie, tis the season for cookies am I right? In our house, these are Santa’s favorite cookie =)
I love when I go to a restaurant, and they leave you an Andes mint, way better than just a basic mint. Eating one of these Mint Chocolate Andes Cookies is basically the same thing right? Which means I’ll be having one after each dinner.
These chocolate cookies with Andes Mints are mouthwatering. Nothing better than a Mint Chocolate Cookie

So happy to hear that!! Thanks so much Sierra for coming back and letting me know =)
I made these for Christmas in 2018, and they were so good that my husband requested them instead of birthday cake for his December 2019 birthday. Still amazing! I forgot to add salt until they were already in the oven, so I sprinkled a tiny bit of course salt on top which turned out well. This cookies are becoming a tradition for our family!
Hi Bonnie, I use cooking spray or parchment paper to prepare my baking sheet.
how is the cookie sheet “prepared”?
So happy to hear that Kara! Thank you for letting me know!
Gave this recipe a whirl today and they turned out awesome!!!! I will definitely add more Andes next time for even more chip texture and flavor. Thanks for the recipe!
Hi Raeanna, sorry I was not clear but yes I used the baking chip! I will make sure to update that!
I love these so much! Are the Andes mints supposed to be the package of andes baking chips or the original Andes mints candies? I used one package of the candy and it wasn’t enough. Made me wonder if maybe you meant the baking chips? Thank you for this delicious recipe!
I’m sorry that happened for you Rosalie. I haven’t had trouble with these cookies but if you do you could try chilling them. I don’t for this recipe but it could help if they are going flat for you.
Idk why but mine are not coming out flat like yours more round
I’m sorry that happened Andrea. You may have not done anything wrong, it could just be your oven cooks lower then mine. I looked over the reviews on Pinterest and most people said they baked in 8 minutes our less. I would just keep an eye on them and even press them down lightly before baking. Glad they tasted good though!
So I’m not entirely sure what I did, but my batch took longer than 10 mins. And they didn’t really expand and flatten like I was expecting… they taste great but idk what I did wrong.
Hi Brenda,
For this recipe you can freeze the dough then bake later. I love to roll out each drop of dough then place them on a baking sheet to freeze. You can then place them in a freezer bag then add 1-2 minutes for baking. You can also freeze baked cookies. Bake according to the directions and allow them to cool. Place them in a freezer container or bag in a single layer. They should be good for up to 2 months.
I hope that helps and if you have anymore questions let me know.
Hi Emily! Sorry for not making that clear, it is regular white sugar for this recipe. I hope you enjoy the cookies =)
Is this white or brown sugar??
Will these freeze for about a month? I’d like to make them for my son’s wedding in October.
