Hi Donna,

BROWNIE MOUNDS
3 1/3 cups sifted flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
2/3 cup margarine
1 1/2 cups sugar
2/3 cup light corn syrup
2 eggs
6 (1-ounce) squares chocolate, melted
2 teaspoons vanilla
1 1/2 cups coarsely chopped nuts (I used walnuts)
Sift first 3 ingredients. Mix margarine and sugar then corn syrup and eggs. Add flour. Stir in remaining ingredients. Drop by heaping measuring Tablespoonfuls onto greased baking sheet. Bake in 350*F. oven 10 to 12 minutes. Makes 4 dozen. I don't frost these cookies, but I don't see why you couldn't if desired.

Chocolate Mint Creams
1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
2/3 cup brown sugar, packed
6 Tablespoons butter or margarine
1 Tablespoon water
1 6 ounce package semi-sweet chocolate pieces
1 egg
1/2 to 3/4 pound pastel cream mint kisses (The mints can be found at candy shops or food gift shops).
Stir together flour and baking soda. In a medium saucepan, heat and stir brown sugar, butter and water over low heat until butter is melted. Add chocolate pieces. Heat and stir until chocolate is melted. Pour into a large mixing bowl and let stand for 10 - 15 minutes or until cool. Beat egg into chocolate mixture. Stir in the flour mixture until well mixed. (Dough will be soft.) Cover and chill for 1 - 2 hours or until easy to handle. Shape into 1 inch balls. Place 2 inches apart on an ungreased cookie sheet. Bake at 350* for 8 minutes. Do not overbake. Remove and immediately top each cookie with a mint. Return to the oven and bake about 2 minutes more. Remove pan from oven; swirl the melted mints with a knife to frost cookies. Cool cookies on racks until mints are firm.
