This is similar to an old family recipe that has been around for over a hundred years. We call them "cloud cookies" because of how they look when they are finished. I love chocolate and mint but I have never tried it with mint. Our cookies consist of pecans and chocolate chips instead. Awesome Recip - 12/12/08
