Let&#8217;s quickly review a few important ingredients:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>All-Purpose Flour: <\/strong>Make sure that you are spooning your flour into the measuring cup, not scooping it from the container. Too much flour can lead to thick, cakey cookies. If you&#8217;re not familiar with the spoon and level method, I have a full post on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/how-to-measure-flour\/\">how to measure flour correctly<\/a>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Cocoa Powder: <\/strong>Because this recipe uses a combination of baking soda and baking powder, I recommend using unsweetened natural cocoa powder. Dutch process cocoa powder is not acidic and won&#8217;t react properly with the baking soda. I explain more in my blog post on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/natural-vs-dutch-process-cocoa-powder\/\">natural vs. Dutch process cocoa powder<\/a>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Butter: <\/strong>I always use unsalted butter because it allows you to control the amount of salt in your baked goods. If you only have salted butter on hand, just omit the salt called for in the recipe.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Egg &amp; Egg Yolk: <\/strong>You will be using one whole egg and one egg yolk. You can save the extra egg white for later or use it in my <a href=\"https:\/\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/candied-pecans\/\">candied pecans<\/a> or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/candied-almonds\/\">candied almonds<\/a>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Andes Mint: <\/strong>The most important part! You will need to unwrap about 26 Andes mints to have enough to place on top of the cookies.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped

I recommend storing them in a large freezer bag with layers of parchment paper between the cookies.

Scoop it onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and freeze the balls of cookie dough for 1 to 2 hours or until firm, then store in a freezer bag.
