Robin's minttens recipe calls for mint baking chips in between the mitten cookies. I have looked at every grocery store in town for mint baking chips and there aren't any in Fairbanks, Alaska! I don't think it would work to add peppermint flavoring to melted chocolate chips, so does anyone have any other suggestions? Thanks!

I wonder if you can take peppermints and finely crush them and add to the chocolate. I would think it would just melt in to the chocolate. This is a good site as well www.baking911.com to try for answers.

It's not "my" recipe, it's the Reynolds Kitchens Winter 2007 signature recipe... But I understand why everything thinks it's mine... even news anchors were callling it my recipe. Well, I am making Minttens for my party this weekend. It will be the first time I'll have made the cookie. I made the dough last night... dyed some dough red, green and left a portion white. When I went to buy the mint chips, they weren't at my grocery store either, so I bought Nestles Mint choco chips... I asked the PR people where the mint chips can be found and they said at The World Market. It was probably not the smoothest move to have an ingredient not so readily available.
