Copy the taste of Nestle Toll House mint chip
How much Wilton Peppermint Extract should I use with a 10 oz pkg of Nestles Toll House semi sweet chocolate morsels. They used to sell the semi sweet mint, however, to my surprise I have searched everywhere and cannot find them. Thank you.

Wondering if this another shortage related to heavy buying or baking during Covid-19 pandemic. Or just a quirk of manufacturing, coincident with the virus.
Before you go to mint extract, maybe buy some chocolate chip bars flavored with mint - and use them, broken up, to replace the mint chocolate chips in the recipe.
If still nothing in the stores, I would use mint extract in small amount to start.
If your cookie recipe has - for example - 1 tsp vanilla, I would use about 1/2 tsp mint extract for the whole batch.
Mix in. Test bake one cookie. If good, bake the rest of the batch.
If not strong enough, add another 1/4 tsp mint extract, mix in, proceed with another test cooked.
