I've never been able to tell the difference between this imposter and the real deal. Easy, Easy, Easy!! I actually overheard this recipe at a meeting when I was working as a journalist. I tried it, and it's a winner! You might be able to get more than 70 cookies out of this recipe.

These are good, but not really the same as Thin Mints, but in a pinch they work. Thought this was an interesting recipe on its own.

GIRL SCOUT MINT COOKIES (COPYCAT)

Girl Scout Mint Cookies (Copycat) image

I got an email from my mom with a bunch of copycat recipes. Most of them are already posted on zaar, but this one isn't so I thought I'd go ahead and get it out her. Enjoy. Servings and yield are guesses, as I have not actually made these yet.

Time 35m

Yield 24 cookies, 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

Ingredients

1 (12 ounce) box devil's food cake mix (or normal size cake mix box)
2 eggs
2 tablespoons water
2 tablespoons cooking oil
1/2 cup cocoa
1 (12 ounce) package chocolate chips (or normal size bag of chocoalte chips)
2 -3 drops wilton's candy mint extract

Steps:

Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
Combine cake mix, eggs, water, cooking oil,and cocoa. You will need to blend this together well, this will be a very sticky mess.
Let stand for 20 minutes, and then shape into very small 1/2 inch balls. Place these balls on a cookie sheet 2 inches a part, and smash down flat. You will need to spray a large spoon with Pam to make them flat.
Bake for about 8 minutes. Let cool until they reach room temperature.
Heat chocolate chips in either the microwave, or in a double boiler. When completely melted add a couple drops of the mint flavoring. Be carefull not to add too much, it is a powerfull flavoring.
You can either spread the melted chocolate on the cookies, or you can dip the cookies into the chocolate.
