This one is an absolute dandy cookie recipe!!

They are easy and yummy too!

SUPER EASY CHOCOLATE MINT COOKIES

1 Devils Food Cake Mix

2 Eggs

1/2 cup vegetable oil

Approx. 2 Boxes of Andes Mint candies

Mix the first 3 ingredients together and drop in spoonfuls onto a cookie sheet. (For best results line cookie sheet with Reynolds “release”foil.

Bake at 350 for 8-10 minutes. It’s really important that you don’t over cook them.

Remove from oven and place an unwrapped Andes Mint candy on the top of each cookie.

After it starts to melt, use the back of a spoon to gently move the Andes Mint around on each cookie until it is completely melted and cover the top of the cookies like frosting.

Allow to cool before serving or stacking on a plate. Or go ahead and eat immediately for a delicious rich warm cookie. Don’t forget the milk!

TRUST ME EVERYBODY LOVES THESE!!

I hope that you all do to!

Best wishes and Happy Holidays!!

This was the table scape for our family Easter dinner this year. Not so much of my usual vintage style decor, because I was looking for super EASY!! My dishwasher blew up a couple of months ago. So, we all decided to go the paper plate route. And because I really don’t like doing dishes I agreed.

I began with my creamy white tablecloth and my vintage yellow linen table runner. Then I used pretty pink large plates with a fun, cute green Easter print salad plate on top. Then I found some sweet pastel polka dot napkins. I thought it looked pretty festive! And yes, I still used the gold flatware! I’m not crazy about plastic forks, etc.

Here’s a closer look. You can also see the fun pastel buckets I put in a row down the middle of the table for the centerpiece. Each bucket has a decoupage’ vintage style scene of a old fashion bunny or chick. So adorable!! Then they were each filled with lots and lots of candy!! Mostly chocolate! That’s right chocolate. If you’re going to do Easter candy it had better be chocolate in my house! Every one at the dinner took one home for a mini Easter basket treat.

And last but not least…. what is Easter with out dyed eggs!! And let me tell you these eggs were DYED!! I know because I’m the one who dyed them and let me just say that, if you put the eggs in the dye and walk away for several hours, they really turn out quite BRIGHT!! I have never done that before, but if you’d like super bright eggs next year. I say GO FOR IT!!

Anyway, I hope that your Easter holiday was wonderful and thanks for stopping by. Next year I’ll try to do more shabby, more cottage and definitely more vintage!

My best to all!

Now what could possibly be more fabulous to show than “CHOCOLATE”?? How about chocolate in a BLUE bucket? Yep, that works! It is as cute as it is absolutely delicious!! Can’t you smell the yumminess!

These were used as centerpieces on the table for our 2009 Easter dinner. They were pretty easy to make, pretty cute to look at and extremely yummy to eat!
