Then I was asked to make my sugar cookies for Thanksgiving which everyone loves. I took out the butter to soften and the day just got away from me. The butter was way too soft to make the sugar cookies and so I decided to use the butter to make the cookie recipe that is on the back of the package.

This is the picture from Nestle's website of the cookie...I forgot to take a picture.
Review: When I opened the bag of chips I was already in love with this cookies. It was just the perfect mint smell to me. Making the cookies was just as easy as making any chocolate chip cookie. I used the small cookie scoop I had for a couple of reason...one my larger scoop broke and two I figured smaller cookies would be better after eating a lot of turkey. It does make a ton using the smaller scoop and I was able to set some aside for our second Turkey dinner with my in-laws. These cookies to me taste just like the girl scout Thin Mint cookies. Which is awesome because if you ever have a craving for them you don't have to wait to order a package from your local girl scout. This is a keeper and I just hope I can find another bag before they disappear...

I made those...they were out of this world!!!! YUMMMMMY!!!!!
I made these and the husband LOVED them, now I have to try and find the chips again.
These were indeed good. I found the batter very sticky and rather hard to work with. I also had to bake them longer than the recipe said but they were tasty in the end.
I just made these...OMG!! They do taste just like Thin Mints!!!
My grocery store no longer carries these chips and the Nestle website doesn't show them. Have they been discontinued? The cookies were wonderful!
I think the reason you can't find the is because they are/were limited edition chips. I am guessing you might not see them again until next Christmas season.
I have two bags in my freezer and I was going to make these cookies for my wonderful neighbor who plowed us out. That was before we lost power and now I am camped out at my in-laws...
Thank you so much for posting the recipe for the package! I just opened up my chip container to make a batch, and my stupid husband had opened the package to snack and then THROWN IT AWAY! I panicked...but you saved the day!
I cant find these anywhere...where do i buy them?!?!?!?!
I bought mine at Target last year around this time. These chips are a seasonal item and I know all the stores here have their Christmas stuff out. So I would start looking for them and buy a few bags.
