List of Ingredients




Makes 3 dozen

10 oz mint chocolate wafers
3/4 cup butter, softened
2/3 cup sugar
1 egg
1/4 tsp salt
1 1/3 cups all-purpose flour, unsifted
3/4 cup walnuts, finely chopped

Melt 5 oz of the Mint Wafers (Ghiradelli brand is good) in a double boiler, stirring constantly or microwave on medium for about 3 minutes. Set aside. Cream butter with sugar, egg and salt. Mix in melted chocolate.

Gradually add flour. Chill dough at least 1 hour.

Shape dough into balls, using 1 level Tbsp for each cookie. Roll balls into nuts. Place on greased baking sheets. Flatten slightly with the palm of hand.

Bake at 350-F for only 8 minutes. Remove from oven and place Mint Wafer on top of each cookie, pressing slightly. Continue baking 3-5 minutes longer or until cookie is firm.
