Would like to try them, but as you know I have not touched sugar, flower, choclate etc for over 2 years. I would probably get sick if I tried to eat one.

Creme de Menthe/Chocolate Chip Cookies
By virtue of an accident (self-rising flour) and a lack of a bag of chocolate chips (only half a bag of creme de menthe and half a bag of chocolate chips), I bring you a cookie that turned out pretty damn well.
1/2 c. butter (salted) - just one stick, so better for you than chocolate chip cookies which generally require two sticks for the same size batch 3/4 c. brown sugar 1/2 c. white granulated sugar 1 t. baking soda 1 t. baking powder 2 t. vanilla extract 2 eggs
Mix.
2 2/3 c. self-rising flour (I used Gold Medal self-rising specialty flour)
It'll get too thick and clumpy to be good cookie dough, so add some cold water a teaspoon or two at a time until it just quits being little clumps and becomes dry, but mixed cookie dough.
Add 1/2 bag of creme de menthe bits (I used Andes) Add 1/2 bag of chocolate chips (I used Nestle semi-sweet morsels)
Mix in the chips.
Bake at 350 degrees on a non-stick pan (I use a stoneware pan) for about 12 minutes. Cook for a few more if not browning (move to a higher rack if necessary) until a respectable brown on top. Cool and eat. Probably really good with ice cream.
