    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

    This is an excellent recipe when you want something sweet without doing too much harm. My Grand-daughters helped me make them and were more than willing to do the taste test. - 1/27/21

    I really can't wait to try these. I LOVE anything peppermint and if it has chocolate, so much the better! I'm just wondering though about using peppermint extract in place of the candies. - 6/13/12
