Description
Delightful cookies coated in creamy chocolate infused with refreshing mint, perfect for any occasion.
Ingredients
- Girl Scout chocolate mint cookies (or similar)
- Coconut oil
- Mint extract
- Dark chocolate (at least 60% cocoa)
Instructions
- Melt the chocolate: Begin by combining the dark chocolate and coconut oil in a microwave-safe bowl. Heat in 30-second intervals, stirring until completely smooth. Be cautious to avoid overheating!
- Infuse the mint: Once melted, add a few drops of mint extract to the chocolate mixture. Stir well to ensure even distribution of the refreshing flavor.
- Coat the cookies: Carefully dip each cookie into the chocolate mixture, ensuring it’s fully coated. Use a fork to lift it out, letting excess chocolate drip back into the bowl.
- Prepare for cooling: Place the coated cookies on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Ensure they have enough space between them to avoid sticking.
- Set in the refrigerator: Allow the cookies to cool and harden in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes, or until the chocolate is firm to the touch.
- Serve and savor: Once set, they’re ready to delight your taste buds. Indulge in your homemade Mint Thins and revel in the joy they bring!
