Double Chocolate Mint Chip Cookies

17 Mar 2019 Home, Recipes

 

Happy Sunday ☘️ I have the best ever double chocolate mint cookie recipe to share with you today! I was craving Thin Mints something fierce the other day and worked on this little batch and it came out SO yummy!

Ingredients:

  • 6 ounces semisweet chocolate chips
  • 2 tablespoons salted butter
  • 1 cup flour
  • 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 2/3 cup sugar
  • 2 eggs, at room temperature
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 2 drops of peppermint vitality essential oil
  • 1 cup of chocolate chips

Steps:

  1. Preheat the oven to 300 degrees. Line 2 large rimmed baking sheets with parchment paper. Set aside.
  2. In a small bowl, combine the bittersweet chocolate and butter. Place the bowl over a pan of barely simmering water and stir occasionally until the chocolate has melted and the mixture is smooth.
  3. In a medium bowl, sift the flour, cocoa, baking powder and salt. In a large bowl, whisk together the sugar, eggs, 2 tablespoons water, vanilla extract and 2 drops of peppermint vitality essential oil. Gradually add the dry ingredients. Fold in the cooled chocolate. Stir in the chocolate chips. Chill the dough 10 minutes to firm slightly. Roll little balls (a little smaller than golf balls) and place in your baking sheet.
  4. Bake the cookies 8 minutes, until the cookies are slightly puffed and dry looking with some small cracks on top.
  5. Cool the cookies and ENJOY!

We’re currently in Phase 1 of our Costa Rican ad We’re currently in Phase 1 of our Costa Rican adventure. This is the two week decompression period where we train our bodies and minds to slow down (this is more for me than anyone else), and let me tell you, I’m lapping it up.  We’re spending all day outside at the beach, going to bed early, eating lots of fresh fruit and healthy foods, swimming in the ocean, I’m working out and meditating in the mornings, and having fun together. For someone who is usually always in high gear, this part is my gift to myself 🐚 

We are staying at a beautiful place in papagayo with @exclusiveresorts and it feels very luxurious and restorative. 

The kids are already thriving. Being together 24/7 comes with its arguments and fights but they are learning how to just be with each other and with their crazy little brother. They’re helping a lot with him, learning a little Spanish, surfing, writing in their journals, and meeting kids from all over the world who are staying here as well. 

I’m letting us get pampered for this phase, and it feels really good. 

Thanks for coming along, I hope your year is off to an amazing start! Is there anything specific you’d like me to share about while we’re in this phase? I was thinking about sharing my morning workouts and meditations, but let me know!
Recently, I downloaded the Melissa Wood health app Recently, I downloaded the Melissa Wood health app @melissawoodtepperberg @melissawoodhealth and so far I’m loving the workouts. I try and do one every morning. They’re super quick so sometimes I do two. I like that they are gentle but hard. They incorporate a lots of yoga, pilates, breathing, stretching, balancing and all that good stuff. You can see from the videos I’m pretty shaky in the first couple clips, that balance is tough but I’m building up my strength, I can feel it 💪🏻
