INGREDIENTS

1
 roll (16.5 oz) Pillsbury® refrigerated sugar cookies
1
 package (4.67 oz) thin rectangular crème de menthe chocolate candies (28 pieces), unwrapped, coarsely chopped
1
 bag (12 oz) white vanilla baking chips (2 cups)
1
 tablespoon shortening
 Colored sugar or sprinkles

DIRECTIONS

1 Heat oven to 350°F. In large bowl, break up dough; stir in chopped chocolate candies until well mixed. 2 On ungreased cookie sheets, drop dough by tablespoonfuls about 2 inches apart. Bake 13 to 15 minutes or until edges are golden brown. Cool 5 minutes; remove from cookie sheets to cooling racks. Cool completely, about 20 minutes. 3 In double boiler or in bowl set over saucepan, melt baking chips and shortening over simmering water. 4 Dip half of each cookie in melted chip mixture. Place on waxed paper; sprinkle with colored sugar. Let stand until set. Store in airtight container up to 3 days or in freezer up to 2 months.
If you prefer, use melted milk or semisweet chocolate chips for dipping your cookies.
When melting chips for dipping, use very low heat to prevent scorching.
