You guys all know how much I love COOKIES, right? And you probably have guessed by now just how much I love CHOCOLATE too. Put the two together and you have one happy blogger. 
I’ll pretty much take any excuse I can get to make some yummy cookies… especially if they have chocolate. What if I told you this next recipe has DOUBLE the chocolate? Pretty sweet, right? I’m calling this next recipe: Double Chocolate Mint Cookies. It has a chocolate base and has White Chocolate Chips and Chopped Chocolate Mints too (I guess technically that makes it triple?!)
I’ll definitely be adding this one in on the cookie rotation.

The recipe was inspired by the Double Chocolate Chunk Mint Cookies from McCormick. I just added even more chocolate to the mix. I had been asked to create a recipe from their kitchen and team up with some other bloggers to have a “Virtual Bake Sale” via Pinterest (through re-pins).
Here is how the VIRTUAL BAKE SALE will work:
- Visit the McCormick Bake Sale Contest Pinterest board and pick your favorite bake sale treat (hopefully it’s mine!)
- Repin this recipe to one of your boards, using hashtag #McCormickBakeSale
- Each repin FROM the McCormick Bake Sale Pinterest Board is equivalent to “buying” an item from the Bake Sale.
- The team with the most REPINS wins!
