This is my go-to cookie whenever I need to bring cookies to something or take cookies to a neighbor – my cute friend Annie introduced them to me and they have been my favorite cookie ever since.
If you are looking for a fast, and delicious cookie recipe for this season, look no further. This recipe is all you need. They are also very addicting. As rich as they are, you won’t be able to have just one.
The best part, is these cookies only require 4 simple ingredients. Yes, you read that right, 4 ingredients.

How to make Andes Mint Cookies:
- 1 (15.25 ounce) pkg. devil’s food cake mix
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil
- 2 eggs
- 1 pkg. Andes Mints
2. Bake them at 350 degrees for 6 to 9 minutes. While they are cooking, unwrap your Andes Mints so they are ready to go. When they are done, pull them out of the oven and put an Andes Mint on top.
*The trick is to put the Andes Mint on while the cookies are still hot so the mint will melt on top of the cookie.
what is the best way to store these if i make them ahead of time?
Holidays get a little crazy, so the more you can use your time wisely and make things ahead of time, the better.
These Andes Mint Cookies are the best cookies to make ahead of time, because they are delicious cold. If you plan to make them more than a week ahead of serving them we recommend storing them.
The best way to store and preserve them, is to put them in an airtight container, and put them in the freezer.
The day before serving them, we recommend removing them from the freezer and putting them on the counter, or in the fridge for 24 hours.
You could also reheat them in the oven a little bit, just to make them warm, but it will melt the chocolate a little bit.
the perfect holiday drinks to serve with cookies:
Don’t get me wrong, I love cookies and milk, but there are a few holiday drinks, that only come around this time of year, so you have to take advantage of them.
Here are a few of our favorite holiday beverages to drink with our favorite cookies. They are all alcohol free, and kid friendly, so everyone can enjoy the holidays.
Red Velvet Hot Chocolate: Just when red velvet couldn’t get any tastier, we turned it into hot chocolate, and you are going to love it. It is so creamy, and I love dipping cookies or brownies in it.
Nutella Hot Chocolate: If you are anything like me, you like the rich with the rich. I don’t care what anyone says, there is no such thing as too much chocolate, and this hot cocoa, and the cookies, complement each other, perfectly.

Seriously, yummy and easy. Hope they harden a bit when they cool though or I'll have to cook them a bit longer next time.
THANKS!
To Anonymous who had flat cookies- I am so sorry! I am not sure why it didn't work? I like to use a cake mix that has pudding in the mix, but I have made them with regular cake mixes too and they have turned out the same. I didn't use the Andes Mint chips, I used a package of the whole mints (that are found on the holiday aisle or candy aisle) and I added them at the end, after the cookies had baked instead of adding them to the dough. I don't know if that was what made the difference? I am glad that your muffins ended up working out!
I just made these and was a little confused at first too. But this mixes up so thick that to get it off the spoon essentially your rolling it off and into a ball. I just sprayed my spoon with some pam and they rolled right off. They were amazing!!

@Ashley, you only put the 1/2 cup oil and 2 eggs, do not follow the cake mix directions! Also, greasing the spoon with some Pam or butter really helps in "rolling" them off =)
Thanks!
