Raw Vegan "Thin Mints"

  • 1

Ingredients

  • MINT PATTY INGREDIENTS :
  • 1 cup almond flour
  • 2 tablespoons coconut oil
  • pinch of sea salt or himalayan pink salt
  • 1/4 cup agave nectar or other liquid sweetener such as raw honey or maple syrup
  • OR for zero calorie sweetener, use 3 drops of liquid Stevia
  • 1/2 tablespoon natural peppermint extract
  • RAW CHOCOLATE TOPPING INGREDIENTS :
  • 2 tablespoons coconut oil
  • 2 tablespoons cacao powder
  • 2 tablespoons agave nectar or maple syrup

Preparation

Step 1

Makes about 12 patties. Prep time 15 minutes + 10 for chilling.

Directions :

First, melt all the coconut oil combined for the Mint Patty and Chocolate Topping, until it’s just barely melted but not hot.

In a medium bowl, mix in almond flour, 1/2 of the coconut oil, salt, sweetener and peppermint extract. Form flat patties from the almond flour mint mixture. If it gets to soft to work with, place in the refrigerator for about 10-15 minutes to harden slightly.

Meanwhile, in another small bowl, mix all the ingredients for the chocolate topping and drizzle on top of the mint patties. (you may need two coats to cover completely, place in the refrigerator to harden then add one more layer of raw chocolate.) Return to the refrigerator to set completely once they are fully coated, or the freezer for just a few minutes to harden and enjoy even faster ;)
