Ingredients
  • ----CHOCOLATE COOKIE WAFERS----
  • 18 1/4 oz fudge cake mix
  • 3 tablespoon shortening, melted
  • 1/2 cup cake flour, sifted
  • 1 each egg
  • 3 tablespoon water
  • 1 non stick cooking spray
  • ----COATING----
  • 36 oz semi sweet chocolate chips
  • 3/4 teaspoon peppermint extract
  • 6 tablespoon shortening

Directions
  1. 1. Combine the cookie ingredients in a large bowl, adding the water a
  2. little bit at a time until the dough forms. Cover and chill for 2
  3. hours. 2. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  4. 3. On a lightly floured surface, roll out a portion of the dough to
  5. just under 1/16 of an inch thick. To cut, use a lid from a spice
  6. container with a 1 1/2-inch diameter (Schilling brand is good.)
  7. Arrange the cut dough rounds on a cookie sheet that is sprayed with a
  8. light coating on non-stick spray. Bake for 10 minutes. Remove the
  9. wafers from the oven and cool completely.
  10. 4. Combine chocolate chips with peppermint extract and shortening in
  11. a large microwave - safe glass or ceramic bow. Heat on 50 percent

  13. Stir once again, and if chocolate is not a smooth consistency,
  14. continue to zap in microwave in 30-second intervals until smooth.
  15. 5. Use a fork to dip each wafer in the chocolate, tap the fork on the
  16. edge of the bowl so that the excess chocolate runs off, and then
  17. place the cookies side-by-side on a wax paper - lined baking sheet.
