    Tips and Tricks for Making This Choco Mint Blossom Cookies Recipe: 

    • When baking in a non-stick cookie sheet, make sure you have parchment paper on top of the sheet or spray it with non-stick cooking spray.
    • To make the mixing process of the butter and sugar easier, make sure you have the butter at room temperature for at least 15-20 minutes after taking it out from the chiller – or longer if you have a frozen butter.
    • Keep these cookies for days by putting it in an airtight container.
    • Be sure to place the mint kisses right after you take the cookies out of the oven. It is so much easier to center the mint kisses when the cookies are still soft.
