Mint-Topped Chocolate Cookies

This cookie seemed to be the hit this Christmas. They just happened to be the easiest kind to make as well. I tried a lot of new recipes this year and this one won! I misread the original recipe but still really like what came out. Courtesy of Taste of Homes Holiday edition 2009.


1 pkg. devils food cake mix
1/2 cup shortening
2 eggs
1 tablespoon water
powdered sugar
1 pkg grasshopper cookies

Combine cake mix, shortening, eggs and water. Form into 1 tablespoon balls. Roll in powdered sugar. Bake on greased cookie sheet for 10 minutes at 350 degrees. Place grasshopper cookie in center and press down. Remove to wire rack to cool.

The original recipe called for soft mint cookies I think. Either way, these worked and everyone really liked them.
