Prepare cookie mix following the directions on the package. Wrap bowl in plastic wrap and chill dough for at least 15 minutes.
Take one tablespoon of dough with a cookie scoop and flatten into a disk. Place the candy in the center and wrap the edges of the dough around the Andes candy until it's completely covered.
Place cookies 2 inches apart on the baking sheet and bake for 7-9 minutes, or until cookies are set.
Allow to cool for 2 minutes, then move to a cooling rack to finish cooling.
Meanwhile, melt the chocolate chips in the microwave, making sure to stir every 15 seconds.
Immediately drizzle melted chocolate over the cookies.

Chocolate Chip Cookies: Mix in chocolate chips and chop up the Andes mints for some minty chocolate chip cookies.
