Chocolate Andes Mint Cookie Mix — Gift in a Jar

Four ingredients — two for the cookie mix and two more for the cookies.  How easy is that??  Chocolate Andes Mint Cookie Mix goes together in a flash and is super delicious, too.  You’ll want to make the mix for everyone — and yourself too!

Use a wide mouth quart jar.  Add one box chocolate cake mix — any kind.  I used a devil’s food mix that I had stocked piled when cake mixes were on sale.  Pour the mix gently into the jar.  Add a heaping 3/4 cup of Andes Mint Chips.  Add lid.  Print Chocolate Andes Mint Cookie Mix Tags      Add tag and decorate jar to your heart’s content.  To make cookies, follow the simple directions.  Chilling the dough makes it easier to handle, especially if you are forming the cookies by hand.  I used a cookie scoop to measure and place cookies on the baking sheet.

If you don’t have a funnel, see this post  Potato Soup Mix for directions on how to make one with a disposable cup and for other hints.
