Here is my recipe that I used for the cookies I brought to the GoGreen Expo. Not too sweet but loads of chocolate and mint…what a great combination!

Mint Double Chocolate Chip Cookies
Ingredients:

• 1 cup vegan butter, softened (I used Earth Balance Soy Free)
• 1/2 cup brown sugar
• 1/2 cup sugar
• 2 teaspoon real mint extract
• 2 1/4 cup unbleached all-purpose flour
• 12 oz semi-sweet vegan chocolate chips
• 1/2 cup cocoa powder
• 1/4 cup any vegan milk…soy or almond
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1 1/4 teaspoon baking soda

Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.  In a mixer cream sugars and butter until fluffy.   Add liquids…non dairy milk and mint extract.  Combine dry ingredients in a large separate bowl.  Add wet mixture to dry ingredients and mix well.  Fold in chocolate chips.  Roll into small balls onto cookie sheet.  Bake 8-10 minutes.
