Double Dipped Mint Shortbread Cookies

Yum
With St. Patrick's Day less than two weeks away, it's time to start sharing some sweet treats...
starting with...


Double Dipped Mint Shortbread Cookies
are so minty good.  These minty shortbread cookies are dipped on each end.  One side in semi sweet chocolate and the other in white chocolate.  It will be so hard to decide which side start at!
Start at the semi-sweet chocolate end?
Or, munch on the white chocolate end first?
Maybe just start in between and get a little bit of both chocolates!
Sounds like you will need to try all the ways!  But first you need to bake 'em so you need a recipe of course. Here ya go...

Ingredients:
1 cup sugar
1 cup butter, softened
1 egg
2 2/3 cup flour
1/4 tsp salt
1 1/2 tsp mint extract
10 drops of green food coloring
3/4 cup semisweet chocolate chips
3 Tbsp whipping cream
3/4 cup white chocolate chips
3 Tbsp whipping cream
green sprinkles
Directions:
Preheat oven to 375 degrees.  In a large bowl, cream together sugar and softened butter until light and fluffy.  Beat in the egg and then add the mint extract.  Slowly mix in the flour and salt.  Once well combined, add the 10 drops of green food coloring.  Roll the green dough into 1" balls and flatten with a glass.  Place cookies on an ungreased cookie sheet.  Bake for 10-12 minutes.  Remove from cookie sheet and cool on a wire rack.  Once cookies are cooled, place semi sweet chocolate chips and 3 Tbsp whipping cream in a microwave safe bowl.  Cook for 30 seconds on high.  Stir and repeat until chocolate is melted.  Dip one end of mint shortbread cookies into the semi sweet chocolate.  Place back on wire rack to dry.  Once dry, place white chocolate chips and 3 Tbsp whipping cream into a microwave safe bowl.  Cook for 30 seconds on high.  Stir and repeat until chocolate is melted.  Dip the other end of the mint shortbread cookies into the white chocolate.  Sprinkle green sprinkles on white chocolate while wet.  Let dry.

  1. Thanks to Doctor Razor for the Great miraculous work he did in my life with his herbal remedy. I have been living with this virus and I have shared with my partners my situation because they deserve to have a choice of whether they want to change being with me or not. I unfortunately did not have a choice in this matter leaving me vulnerable and now faced with this virus for the rest of my life or until a cure was discovered.I refused to take the Medical drugs my PCD had told me to take, I surrendered to my fate, because I was careless. On Aug 23, 2020, I came across Doctor Razor herbal medicine. I browsed about the authenticity of This Doctor, I got to see several Testimonies regarding his works from people he had helped with his medicine. I reached out to him and told him my problems, after we spoke he promised to help me out. I started using his herbal medicine which he sent to me Via the Courier Delivery, and asked me to take the herbal medicine for 18 days. which i did. I am delighted to let you all know that I Got cured of Herpes Virus, after the Medical Doctor had confirmed this with the test results, when I went for a medical check up after completing the Herbal Dosage Of 18 days.

  2. Hello Everyone out there,I am here to give my testimony about a Herbalist doctor who helped me . I was infected with HERPES SIMPLEX VIRUS in 2011, i went to many hospitals for cure but there was no solution, so I was thinking how can I get a solution out so that my body can be okay. One day I was in the river side thinking where I can go to get solution. so a lady walked to me telling me why am I so sad and i open up all to her telling her my problem, she told me that she can help me out, she introduce me to a doctor who uses herbal medication to cure HERPES SIMPLEX VIRUS and gave me his email, so i mail him. He told me all the things I need to do and also give me instructions to take, which I followed properly. Before I knew what is happening after two weeks the HERPES SIMPLEX VIRUS that was in my body got vanished . so if you are also heart broken and also need a help, you can also email him at {oliha.miraclemedicine@gmail.com}
    or whatsapp him number: +2349038382931. or website is https://olihamiraclemedici

  4. I was too curious and wanted to try Robinson buckler then i contacted him through his email, he assured me 100% that he will heal me, i pleaded with him to help me out. My experience with him was great, he cured me just as he promised. he sent me his medication and ask me to go for a medical check up after two weeks of usage. i agreed with him i took this medication and went for a check up, to my greatest surprise my result was negative, i am really happy that i am cured and healthy again. I have waited for 3 weeks to be very sure i was completely healed before writing this testimony. I did another blood test one week ago and it was still Herpes negative. so i guess its time i recommend anyone going through herpes. reach him through his email address: Robinson.buckler @{{ yahoo }}. com.
