    List of Ingredients




    11 Chocolate Mint Wafers

    2/3 cup butter (no substitutes), softened
    1/2 cup sugar
    1/2 cup packed brown sugar
    1/4 cup milk
    1 egg
    2 cups all-purpose flour
    3/4 cup baking cocoa
    1 teaspoon baking powder
    1/2 teaspoon baking soda
    1/4 teaspoon salt

    Filling:
    2-3/4 cups confectioners' sugar
    1/4 cup half-and-half cream
    1/4 teaspoon peppermint extract
    1/4 teaspoon salt
    Green food coloring

    In a mixing bowl, cream butter and sugars. Add milk and egg; mix well. Combine dry ingredients; gradually add to creamed mixture and mix well. Cover and chill 2 hours or until firm. Roll chilled dough on a floured surface to 1/8-inch thickness. Cut with a 1-1/2-inch cookie cutter and place 1 inch apart on greased baking sheets. Bake at 375 degrees for 5-6 minutes or until edges are lightly browned. Remove to wire racks to cool completely. Combine filling ingredients; spread on half of the cookies and top with another cookie.

    Yield: about 7 1/2 dozen.
