Although I find that they are a little lacking in peppermint flavor (easily remedied), they are wonderful. And yes they are better than actual Thin Mints. :) Did it exactly as the recipe called for (except I ran out of chocolate halfway through ... substituted with chips, which don't taste anywhere near as good. But it's works), will add more peppermint extract next time. It does indeed fill three cookie sheets full of cookies. I found that mine did not rise very much and it was safe to put them very close together. DIPPING REQUIRED FAR MORE THAN EIGHT OUNCES OF CHOCOLATE. In total, I probably used about double that, maybe more. Using chopsticks to dip/cover the cookies is very, very convenient. Thank you so much for this recipe! I can now have my Girl Scout cookies any time of year. :D These are amazing. Although I find that they are a little lacking in peppermint flavor (easily remedied), they are wonderful.

It is safe to say that these cookies are just as good if not BETTER than actual thin mints! Its like comparing Chips Ahoy and Homemade chocolate chip cookies. The homemade ones just taste better. I followed this recipe exactly except for the peppermint. I 3/4 tsp to the batter, and 1/2 tsp to the chocolate. It just made the mint taste more defined. thank you for this recipe! I will use it alot. I tried out this recipe today and I yielded 50 cookies.
