ANDES SURPRISE PILLOW COOKIES
This recipe came on a coupon for Andes Mints, the surprise is what a pain in the butt they are to make. I am putting up some alterations to the preparation to make the surprise part of this cookie more pleasant. The resulting cookies were, however, worth the pain.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine sugar, butter*, egg and vanilla. Use an electric mixer to beat until light and fluffy.
- Add flour, baking powder and salt. beat until a soft dough forms.
- Divide dough in half. On a well-floured surface, roll half of the dough into a 14 x 9 inch rectangle.
- Arrange the mints evenly on dough, forming 7 rows of 7. (I only managed 6 rows of 7). Leave enough room between the mints for your index finger to fit. Press the mints into the dough slightly, this will help keep them still when the top layer of dough is applied.
- Between 2 sheets of waxed paper, roll the remaining dough into a second 14 x 9 inch rectangle. I recommend taping the bottom piece to the counter, or the sliding around will make you nuts.
- Remove the top sheet of wax paper, you can save it to cool the finished cookies on or discard it.
- The recipe says to: Carefully turn second rectangle over mint-topped dough, matching edges. (I found this impossible, the dough slides off the waxed paper before you are positioned and attempting to lift it only results in tearing the dough and moving your mints all hither and yon.)
- I recommend instead: Gently roll the second layer up loosely. Position two edges and slowly unroll over the mint covered dough.
- Remove remaining waxed paper.
- Using a pizza cutter or a scalloped-edge pastry wheel, cut dought evenly between mints.
- Gently press edges of pillows to seal.
- Place pillows on an ungreased cookie sheet and bake for 7-10 minutes or until edges are light brown.
- Cool completely before storing.
- *sometimes I use 1 cup of butter flavored shortening + 3-4 tablespoons water instead of butter.

BUTTER MINTS
Drop the candy thermometer! Making melt-in-your-mouth butter mints is as simple as sculpting Play-Doh (which means the kids can help). Whip up the four-ingredient dough, chop it into gnocchi-like pieces, and let them dry. Then package handfuls in parchment-lined tins to give as holiday gifts.

Steps:
- Combine butter and 2 cups sugar in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Mix on low speed until sugar is moistened, then increase speed to medium-high and beat until well combined. Return mixer to low speed, add remaining 2 cups sugar, and mix until well combined, 1 minute. Increase speed to medium-high; beat until light and fluffy, 6 minutes more. Add peppermint extract, milk, and salt; beat until smooth.
- Lightly dust a clean work surface with confectioners' sugar and turn out "dough" onto it. Divide into 5 pieces; tint as desired with food coloring, leaving one piece white. (Keep covered with plastic wrap while working to prevent drying.)
- Roll "dough" into 1/2-inch-thick ropes, then cut into pieces slightly over 1/2 inch long with a paring knife or bench scraper. Transfer to a parchment-lined rimmed baking sheet. Let dry, uncovered, at least 12 hours. Mints can be refrigerated in an airtight container up to 2 weeks.
ANDES MINT PILLOW COOKIES
***** These also can be made with Andes Cherry Jubilee or Andes Toffee Crunch Thins.***** I made these for a baby shower, and I know the instructions may look hard, or like a lot to follow, but once you get going its easy! I added food coloring to the dough to make them pink, her baby colors are pink,brown and green. :) Like in my other cookie recipes, I use a baking stone and they turn out amazing as well, although, I suggest leaving them on the stone a bit longer than a pan to cool. ***An easy way to keep cookies soft a few days longer, put a piece of bread in the container with them.***
