Mint Double Chocolate Cookies

We figured you might need a chocolate pick-me-up after all of the holiday shopping you'll be doing (or have already done) today. These Mint Double Chocolate Cookies definitely fit the bill...and with a touch of mint they have a bit of holiday flavor!

These cookies are simple enough you can let the kids help with them, just like MaMa let me help make these cookies! Yes, I'm a messy baker.
