Directions
Step 1
Preheat oven to 150˚C (300˚F). Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper. In large bowl, mix together the flour and cornstarch. Set aside.
Step 2
In another bowl, use a wooden spoon to cream together the butter and sugar. Mix in mint extract and food colouring. Gradually stir in the flour mixture to make a soft dough. Using rounded tablespoons of dough, roll each spoonful into a ball (aim for walnut-sized). Place on lined baking sheets about 2 in. (5 cm) apart. Make 30 balls.
Step 3
Chop the 1/3 chocolate-nougat bar into 30 pieces. Lightly press a piece onto the top of each dough ball, without flattening the dough.
Step 4
Bake about 18 min., or until cookies are firm and bottoms are lightly golden. Cool on baking sheet. Store in airtight container 2 to 3 days.
