Chocolate Mint Cookies

Whoopi pie sandwich cookies are two sponge cake halves bonded between themselves cream filling. The sponge cake itself is usually made chocolate, but the filling is a big field for a taste game. Make a cream based on cream marshmallows by adding a few drops of peppermint extract. After all, an interesting combination of bitter chocolate and refreshing mint has long passed from the category of unusual to one of the most loved sweet tooth. For an even brighter taste and crispy texture roll the sides of the collected sandwich cookie in crushed peppermint candies so that they stick to marshmallows, looking between the biscuits.
