Girl Scout Mint Cookies



1 (12 ounce) box devil's food cake mix (or normal size cake mix box)
2 eggs
2 tablespoons water
2 tablespoons cooking oil
1/2 cup cocoa
1 (12 ounce) package chocolate chips (or normal size bag of chocoalte chips)
2 -3 drops wilton's candy mint extract


Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
Combine cake mix, eggs, water, cooking oil,and cocoa. You will need to blend this together well, this will be a very sticky mess.


Let stand for 20 minutes, and then shape into very small 1/2 inch balls. Place these balls on a cookie sheet 2 inches a part, and smash down flat. You will need to spray a large spoon with Pam to make them flat.


Bake for about 8 minutes. Let cool until they reach room temperature.


Heat chocolate chips in either the microwave, or in a double boiler. When completely melted add a couple drops of the mint flavoring. Be careful not to add too much, it is a powerfull flavoring.

You can either spread the melted chocolate on the cookies, or you can dip the cookies into the chocolate.
