You won't believe how quick & easy these Copycat Thin Mint Cookies are to make! 3 ingredients & 15 minutes is all you need. Vegan, no bake.
Crisp, mint chocolate wafer cookies coated in rich chocolate that taste nearly identical to Girl Scout Thin Mints. To make the wafer cookies, combine flour, cocoa powder, Swerve, and a pinch of salt in a large bowl and mix together. Add in vanilla extract, peppermint extract, softened butter, and egg.
If you've had a Thin Mints Girl Scout cookie before, you'll know this is a thin, crisp cookie, so the dough will be a little delicate. Use a butter knife to gently pick up the cookie dough cut-outs and place cookies on a parchment-lined cookie sheet. Bake for 8-10 minutes on the middle rack in the oven.
Combine the chocolate chips, peppermint extract, and shortening in a small glass bowl. Heat for 1 minute in the microwave. Stir until all of the chips have melted and are smooth. Heat an additional 15 seconds if needed. Use a fork to dip each cookie in the chocolate mixture.
