Andes Creme de Menthe Chunk Cookies

1/2 cup salted butter - softened (screw the salted part *U*)
3/4 cup dark brown sugar (I didn't know there even was "dark brown sugar." I used regular packed light brown sugar and my cookies are scrumptious.)
1/2 cup white granulated sugar
1 tsp. baking soda
1 tsp. baking powder
2 tsp. vanilla extract
2 eggs
1 package (10 oz.) Andes Creme de Menthe Baking Chips (minus the handful you will no doubt eat)
2 2/3 cups flour

Blend butter, sugars, baking soda, baking powder, vanilla and eggs until mixed. Stir in the Andes chips and then flour. Chill for about an hour.
Measure out 1 0z. of dough form ball and slightly flatten. (They "grow" so don't make them too big, I just made little one inch balls like with the peanut butter blossoms.) Raise oven rack one level above middle and back at 350* 8-10 minutes. Cool on pans for two minutes before removing. Makes about 4 dozen cookies.
