Here’s an oldy but goody…Way back in 2003, I had my recipe for Mint Candy Cookies published in Quick Cooking magazine (now called Simple & Delicious).

The recipe was featured as a Valentine’s Day treat so I thought I would share this recipe again, as V. Day approaches.

This recipe is so simple, but so good!  It can also be adapted for any occasion — Christmas, Easter, bridal/baby showers, etc… Enjoy!
