Andes Chocolate Chip Cookies

Chocolate Chip Cookies filled with creamy, minty Andes Creme de Menthe Chips! These Andes Chocolate Chip Cookies are anything but ordinary with the minty chips!

Can one ever have too many chocolate chip cookies? I think NOT! I honestly could eat them every day all day. Kinda how I feel about pizza and bacon.

You see chocolate chip cookies are spectacular. They are so simple. Yet, so amazing. There are millions of different versions. Some chewy, some crunchy, some puffy, some flat. The truth is I love them all. I cannot discriminate when it comes to chocolate chip cookies. Unless of course it is an invader and is truly a raisin cookie! YUCK!

I wanted to “clean” out my bakery cupboards the other day. You see it is a constant battle of me stocking up on things at the store and then there is no room to put it. My closet is like that as well. Anyways, I was making cc cookies and there was a half-opened bag of Andes chips.. you see where this is going? I threw them into a bowl of about 2 cups of dough. Therefore the cookies were bursting at the seams of chocolate. Just how a cookie should be.
