Cookies Galore

I baked two flavors of cookies last Sunday: choco-mint cookies and toffee crunch cookies.

Choco-Mint Cookies - though many are not fan of the chocolate & mint combination... I personally like this one better! The original recipe that I got called for peppermint extract and I've been to several supermarkets searching for such but to no avail. Until one day, I came up with the "brilliant" idea to just use Andes Mint Chocolate! I'm glad it turned out great, it was a sure hit with my sis and her officemates, as well as with my choco-mint-addict friends in the office, hehe! I'll certainly be making these cookies again.

Toffee Crunch Cookies - I used Andes Toffee Crunch Chocolate for this one. It was fairly delicious and preferred by those who are not fond of cookies that are too sweet... right, Sai? ;-) I intentionally made this one 'coz I know Sai won't dare try to taste the former (surprisingly, he took a small bite of the choco-mint cookie... only to show his appreciation... or was it plain curiosity? haha!) Sadly, these didn't make it to my office. I brought home (from Bulacan to Lagro) a small bag of these cookies and it sold like hotcakes!

Sorry, I forgot to take pictures... as of this writing, the cookies are all gone! ;-)
