Mint Chocolate Chip Cookies

I get emails frequently from Betty Crocker, Proctor & Gamble, Kraft etc.  I love trying new recipes so I love receiving their emails.  My best friend’s birthday was recent, and she loves anything mint chocolate chip, so I just knew that I had to whip these up for her.  Boy, am I glad I did, she loved them and they are a definite do again in the Johnson household.  Hubby really loved them too!

 

Without further adieu, here’s the recipe!
