Double Chocolate Mint Cookies

Ingredients

1/2 cup cocoa powder
1 1/2 cup flour
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
3/4 cup sugar
1 stick softened unsalted butter
2 eggs
1 tablespoon honey
1 tablespoon coffee
1/4 cup whole milk
1/4 cup fresh chopped mint
1/2 cup semi sweet chocolate chips
Your favorite vanilla ice cream

Preparation

1
Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees.
2
In a large mixing bowl pour in all dry ingredients, add butter, eggs, milk, coffee and honey. Mix with hand blender until completely incorporated.
3
Fold in mint and chocolate chips with spatula.
4
On a silpat lined baking sheet, drop a dollop of cookie batter leaving at least 2 inches apart on all sides.
5
Bake for 10-12 minutes.
6
Remove from heat and cool on wire racks. Once cooled, add one scoop of ice cream and smoosh between two cookies.
7
*Cookies can be enjoyed on their own of course but are so much tastier with ice cream.
8
If you don’t want to make all of the cookies at once, feel free to bake as many as you need and tightly wrap the remaining cooking dough in the shape of a log in parchment paper, then in a layer of plastic wrap. These will keep in the fridge for a couple of days wrapped properly*

About

For anybody that loves the mint chocolate combo, these are a must try! My cookies are almost like a little cake, whoopie pie reminiscent, with a soft puffy texture. Because of their fluffiness, this makes them ideal (in my opinion) for stuffing a healthy scoop of vanilla ice cream between and indulging in a perfectly petite ice cream sandwich.
