Servings 24

Ingredients

Soft Chocolate Cookies

  • 1 box Devil's Food Chocolate Cake Mix I prefer Pillsbury, they don't flatten out when baking
  • 2 eggs
  • 1/3 cup oil

Marshmallow Frosting

  • 1/2 cup butter, softened
  • 1/4 tsp. salt
  • 1 7-oz jar Marshmallow Creme (fluff)

Mint Chocolate Icing

  • 1/4 cup butter melted

  • 3 Tbsp. milk
  • 2 cups powdered sugar

Instructions

  1. COOKIES: Preheat oven to 350 degrees and line cookie sheets with parchment paper. Combine cake mix, eggs and oil in a bowl.  The dough will be thick.  Make golfball sized dough balls, place on cookie sheets and bake for 7-10 minutes, don't over-bake! Let cool.

  2. MARSHMALLOW FROSTING: Beat butter, salt, marshmallow creme, vanilla and 2 cups powdered sugar together. Continue to add more powdered sugar to thicken and add green food dye if desired.  If it becomes too thick add 2 tablespoons milk! Frost cooled cookies.

  3. MINT CHOCOLATE ICING: In a medium bowl add all ingredients listed and whisk together until smooth.  spoon over frosting cookies and top with crushed Andes mints, sprinkles or anything minty!
