Christmas Grinch Cookies

These are really fun for Christmas parties, or I suppose they'd work on St. Patrick's Day... with your green eggs and ham. They're fast and taste great.

----------------------------------------
1 pouch (1 lb 1.5 oz) Betty Crocker® sugar cookie mix
1/2 cup butter or margarine, softened
1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon mint extract
6 to 8 drops green food color
1 egg
1 cup mint baking chips
1 cup semisweet chocolate chunks
----------------------------------------

1. Heat oven to 350°F.

2. In large bowl, stir cookie mix, butter, extract, food color and egg until soft dough forms.

3. Stir in mint baking chips and chocolate chunks.

4. Using small cookie scoop or teaspoon, drop dough 2 inches apart on ungreased cookie sheet.

5. Bake 8 to 10 minutes or until set.

6. Cool 3 minutes; remove from cookie sheet to wire rack.

Serve warm or cool completely. Store tightly covered at room temperature.
