Vegan Thin Mint Cookies
Ingredients:
For the Cookies
- ¾ cup almond flour
- 1 scoop Sunwarrior Active Protein (Chocolate)
- 2 tablespoons Sunwarrior Thermo Greens (unflavored)
- 2 tablespoons Sunwarrior Cacao powder
- ¼ teaspoon baking powder
- Pinch of sea salt
- 3 tablespoons agave nectar
- 3 tablespoons melted coconut oil (use refined if you don't want these cookies tasting like coconut)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon peppermint extract
For the Chocolate Coating
- 1 cup dairy-free dark chocolate chips
- 2 teaspoons coconut oil
- 1 teaspoon peppermint extract
- Directions:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. - In a large bowl, whisk together all the dry ingredients for the cookie portion of the recipe
- Stir in wet ingredients
- Mix until a smooth, slightly sticky dough forms.
- Roll the dough into small balls, then flatten them into thin cookie shapes (think classic Thin Mint size). Place them on your prepared baking sheet.
- Bake for 8-10 minutes, until the edges are set. Let them cool completely (this helps them get crispy!).
-
Melt chocolate chips, coconut oil, and peppermint extract together over a double boiler. Stir until smooth. - Dip each cookie into the melted chocolate, coating both sides. Place them back on parchment paper and let them set in the fridge for about 30 minutes.
- Once the chocolate hardens, your vegan protein-packed Thin Mints are ready to devour!
