Would not make this again.
Great if you like shots of creme de menthe and cookies that looked like someone got sick in the shape of tiny balls. They went right in the trash.. what a waste of time. one star

To have it less sweet, roll the cookies into pure cocoa powder instead of powdered Sugar.

It was too sweet but like the idea and I will make it again with cocoa. Thanks. three stars

My family enjoyed this cookie very much, they like the minty taste, and I enjoyed how easy they were to make. I will make these next year. three stars

Would make this again.
This recipe yields about 2 dozen 1" balls. it is too sweet for my taste, but otherwise the flavors blend very nicely. I used walnuts and it worked great. Definitely chill them first! four stars
