2. Prepare Cookie Dough: In a large, heavy-duty saucepan, combine the brown sugar, 3/4 cup of butter, and 2 tablespoons of water. Cook this mixture over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the butter is completely melted.

3. Add Chocolate Bits: Once the butter is melted, add the chocolate bits to the saucepan. Continuously stir the mixture for 1 to 2 minutes or until the chocolate is smooth and well incorporated. Remove the saucepan from the heat and allow the mixture to cool.

4. Incorporate Eggs: Gradually add the eggs, one at a time, to the cooled chocolate mixture, making sure to beat well after each addition.

5. Combine Dry Ingredients: Stir in the flour, baking soda, and salt until the mixture is well combined and forms a smooth dough.

6. Shape Cookies: Using a rounded teaspoon, drop the cookie dough onto ungreased baking sheets, leaving space between each cookie to allow for spreading during baking.

7. Bake: Place the baking sheets in the preheated oven and bake the cookies for 6 to 8 minutes, or until the edges are set and the tops are slightly firm to the touch.

8. Cool: Once baked, allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for 1 minute before transferring them to wire racks to cool completely.

Prepare Filling:

1. Make Filling: In a large mixer bowl, beat together the confectioners’ sugar, 1/3 cup of butter, and mint extract until smooth and creamy.

2. Adjust Consistency: Gradually add milk to the filling mixture until it reaches your desired spreading consistency. If needed, adjust the amount of milk accordingly.

Assemble Sandwich Cookies:

1. Spread Filling: Take one cookie and spread approximately 2 teaspoons of the prepared filling onto its flat side.

2. Create Sandwich: Place another cookie, flat side down, on top of the filling-covered cookie to create a sandwich. Gently press the cookies together to ensure they adhere well.

Serve and Enjoy:

Once all the cookies are assembled, serve these delightful Chocolate Mint Sandwich Cookies at your next gathering or enjoy them as a sweet treat any time of the day. With their irresistible combination of chocolatey cookies and refreshing mint filling, they’re bound to be a hit with everyone! 🍪🌿
