Steps:
- In a large bowl, beat 1/2 cup butter or margarine until creamy. Add the sugar, and beat until mixed well. Beat in egg and mint extract.
- Sift flour, cocoa, and salt together into a small bowl. Add flour mixture by halves into creamed mixture, beating well after each addition.
- Divide dough in half. On lightly floured surface roll dough into two 1 1/2 inch diameter cylinders. Wrap each cylinder in waxed paper, and refrigerate 5 hours.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Thirty minutes prior to baking, place both cylinders in freezer.
- Remove one cylinder at a time, and slice 1/4 inch thick pieces with very sharp knife. Place on cookie sheets about 1 1/2 inches apart. Bake 10 to 12 minutes.
- Melt 1/4 cup butter or margarine and the semisweet chocolate in a double boiler or in the microwave. Drizzle over warm cookies. Place on wire racks, and let cool and harden completely.

EASY GIRL SCOUT THIN MINTS
These were the hit of my cookie exchange this year. So many people asked me for the recipe that the Wal-mart shelf was emptied of the Andes bits. There is a basic recipe on Zaar but I added the morsels to make the color more like the original cookies. Bet you can't eat just one! I made 5 dozen cookies in 45 minutes, including clean-up time.

Steps:
- Melt mints and morsels in microwave or double boiler.
- Dip Ritz crackers in chocolate mixture ( I use my little ice tongs to make it easy).
- Place on wax paper lined cookie sheet.
- If you want to decorate cookies with sprinkles, you have to do it before the chocolate dries -- after every 3 or 4 cookies.
- When sheet is full, refrigerate for 15 minutes.
- Peel cookies from wax paper (can be used again for next batch).
- Store in tightly sealed container in the refrigerator. They go fast. I've kept them as long as a week if they were well hidden.
- The computer wouldn't let me put it in the list of ingredients, but I use Andes Mint Bits found in the baking aisle.
