comparable to pecan pie. Add ice cream or whipped cream on top.
| Servings: | 12 |
| Yield: | 2 dozen |
Ingredients
- 4 drops green food coloring
- ½ teaspoon water
- ¼ cup flaked coconut
- 48 vanilla wafers
- 24 chocolate covered thin mints
- 1 tablespoon sesame seeds
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (180 degrees C).
- In a bowl, combine food coloring with a few drops of water. Add coconut and cover the container, shake until coconut is tinted. Set aside.
- Place 1/2 of the vanilla wafers, flat side up, in an ungreased cookie sheet. Top each wafer with a peppermint patty. Place in the oven about 1 minute or just until chocolate begins to soften.
- Remove cookies from oven and sprinkle each mint with 1/2 teaspoon coconut (for lettuce). Place another vanilla wafer on top and press gentle. With a clean paint brush, brush the top of each hamburger with just enough water to moisten so that the sesame seeds will stick when sprinkled on top of each cookie. NOTE: You can use canned chocolate frosting in place of peppermint patty, then eliminate the baking.

Kids loved it
thats was amazing
it is ok
I just want the recipe
I made this exactly as the recipe calls for and these went over stupendously. Everyone loves them and I’ll definitely be making more!
Made for a family gathering and everyone loved them.
Fun, fast, adorable to look at!
Oh my goodness, I LOVED these, as did the family and friends. Will definitely make them again
It’s super tasty
Loved these! The kids thought they were amazing! I added just 1/2 a teaspoon of cayenne pepper (You would never think it would work, but it REALLY brings out the flavours and tasted absolutely AMAZING!)
I haven’t tried this one but have a similar one which uses the black part of an oreo cookie instead of the mint, thus no baking required.
These are sooooo cute! The only problem is they are hard to eat because they aren’t bite size and when you bite into them the sandwich smushes and it can get messy. I thought the mint patty was good but not everyone in my cooking class liked it as much as I did, so if you have another idea try it.
I am going to make these for my carnival but I made a taste test batch and they were UNBELIEVABLY REALLY AWESOME cookies
I have made these often, after a coworker brought them to work for a luncheon. The thin mints definitely add to the taste. Cute, and fun!
Instead of sesame seeds I used rice crispy treats!
I have been making these cookies since my almost 30 year old son was a little guy. They are always a fun surprise for kids & grownups alike.
I have been making this recipe for years only I have never put them in the oven. I used chopped green cherries for lettuce since my family doesn’t like coconut. My son works at a fast food restaurant and he has brought home the wrappers for burgers I cut the wrappers in four pieces then wrap the cookie burgers. He takes them to work and his coworkers just love them. His restaurant has a bake sale for a fundraiser once a year and I am asked by his manager to make these cookies. She supplies me with the wrappers.
I thought this recipe is very cute. Made a batch and took to a picnic. Very easy to make.
These were very easy to make and they are just to cute. The taste is not bad, but you have to like peppermint patties to like them. All you taste is the peppermint. It’s not a cookie you sit and eat a half of dozen or more, 2 is enough. I used red tube icing to make it look like ketchup running down. They where so cute that everyone at the coffee club wanted to just look at them. I tip my hat to the person who’s came up with the ideal to create them. They were so easy to put together and within 30 mins I had 36 of them made.
So fun! My kids made them, put a picture on Facebook and everyone asked how they could get hamburgers so small. Haha, and they actually taste pretty decent.
Use marshmallow cream as mayonaise on both top and bottom to keep everything together. Sweet deal!
