All Mint Chocolate Chip Cookie

In a standing mixer, cream until fluffy

1 lb. (4 sticks) soft, room temperature butter
2 cups brown sugar
1 1/2 cups white sugar

 Add:
4 beaten eggs
2 tsp. vanilla

Mix again, then add:
1 tsp. salt
2 tsp. baking soda
6 1/2 cups flour
2 pkgs. mint chocolate chips

Bake 375 degrees for 8 minutes. Let cool on cookie sheet. Yield 80 cookies.

I tried to find Hershey's mint chips because I think they are more attractive, but could not find them anywhere. Had to use Nestle mint chips, which is a green and chocolate mix. You might think these would be overpowering or too much mint. But, they were delicious and the kids loved them.

You could also do one pkg. milk chocolate chips and 1 pkg. mint if you are unsure about your feelings on mint.

This recipe is easily halved.
