inch slices. Arrange, 1 inch apart on baking sheets. Use a cookie stamp to
imprint the tops of half of the rounds.
3. Bake 8-11 minutes, or until cookies just begin to brown on the bottom.
Cool on racks. While cookies are baking, prepare the filling. In a small
mixing bowl, combine powdered sugar , butter, mint extract and 2 1/2 T

necessary. Mixture should be thick and creamy smooth.
4. Spread a 1/8 to 1/4 inch layer of mint filling over the bottoms of the
plain cookie rounds. Top with imprinted rounds to create sandwiches; press
down lightly. Refrigerate until filling is firm, about 20 minutes.
5. To prepare glaze. In a small saucepan, combine chocolate and oil. Warm
over low heat, stirring occasionally, until mixture is smooth. Pour
chocolate into a small deep bowl or 1-cup glass measure. Line a large
baking sheet with waxed paper. Dip half of each cookie sandwich into melted
chocolate, shaking off excess. Arrange sandwiches on waxed paper and
refrigerate until chocolate is set. Store in an airtight container at room
temperature 1 week; freeze for longer storage.
