Since chocolate-mint is my favorite flavor combination, I sometimes eat these dainty shortbread-like treats by the dozen. But I manage to save some for guests because they make my cookie trays look so elegant. -Anne Revers Omaha, Nebraska

Best new recipe I've tried. Tastes good even after a few days and pretty to look at.

Pretty and festive-looking, but...4 dozen? Not following this recipe and dropping by tablespoons. And mine didn't turn out flat like in the picture....maybe one of the steps should be to flatten slightly before baking. However, if a cookie is really good I can just double the batch, or tweak the directions. This was just average. If it were on a buffet I would try one but wouldn't ask for the recipe. I realize shortbreads are supposed to be a more "floury" toned cookie but I already have a good chocolate shortbread that is more buttery, less floury, and could easily be laced with mint, green frosting and a chocolate drizzle.

I have made these year after year with excellent results. HOWEVER, this was the first year I used the online recipe, and I noticed an error: The recipe in the magazine calls for 1/2 cup confectioners' sugar in the batter while the Web recipe calls for 1 cup! I couldn't figure out what I was doing wrong! And of course I made a double batch. Grr.

A delicious and very pretty cookie! A wonderful blend of chocolate and mint. Definitely the pretties cookie on the tray and one I will make again next year.

These are one of my family's favorites! The shortbread-like cookies aren't too sweet and have a hint of mint. The minty frosting compliments them so well, and the chocolate glaze makes them gorgeous! They ship well, too.
