10 oz. vanilla milk (white) chips
4 tsp. shortening, separated

10 oz. mint-chocolate chips
Line cookie sheet with waxed paper. Place vanilla milk chips and 2 teaspoons of the shortening in microwaveable bowl. Microwave uncovered on medium (50%) 4 to 5 minutes or until mixture can be stirred smooth. Don't be tempted to speed things along by melting the chips on the High (100%) setting of your microwave oven - the chips may scorch and have to be thrown out. Dip 15 of the cookies, one at a time into the vanilla mixture; place on cookie sheet. Refrigerate 5 to 10 minutes or until coating is set.
