Girl Scout Mint Cookies Copycat Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
• Combine cake mix, eggs, water, cooking oil,and cocoa. You will need to blend this together well, this will be a very sticky mess.
• Let stand for 20 minutes, and then shape into very small 1/2 inch balls. Place these balls on a cookie sheet 2 inches a part, and smash down flat. You will need to spray a large spoon with Pam to make them flat.
• Bake for about 8 minutes. Let cool until they reach room temperature.
• Heat chocolate chips in either the microwave, or in a double boiler. When completely melted add a couple drops of the mint flavoring. Be carefull not to add too much, it is a powerfull flavoring.
• You can either spread the melted chocolate on the cookies, or you can dip the cookies into the chocolate.

Steps:

• Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
• Combine dark chocolate chips, semisweet chocolate chips, and coconut oil in a large microwave-safe bowl. Heat in a microwave oven for 1 minute and stir. Continue heating 30 seconds at a time, stirring after each heating, until chips are melted and smooth. Add peppermint extract and stir.
• Drop 1 cracker into melted chocolate. Use a spoon to push cracker into chocolate mixture until evenly coated. Transfer coated cracker to a prepared baking sheet. Repeat with remaining crackers and chocolate mixture, reheating mixture in 20-second intervals if it becomes too thick.
• Refrigerate cookies until chocolate hardens, about 10 minutes. Store cookies covered in the refrigerator.

Steps:

• Melt the mint chocolate chips in the microwave.
