I mean, was there ever really any doubt about the best flavor of Girl Scout cookies? It's undoubtably the Thin Mint. And while of course we support the efforts of the Girls Scouts, let's just say that traditional Thin Mints aren't exactly the healthiest, cleanest dessert out there.
So why not experience the sweet versatility of Oobli protein-sweetened chocolate with this healthy twist on the all-time classic Thin Mints Girl Scout cookie recipe? Featuring our award-winning, low-sugar Oobli chocolates, this recipe was developed to cut the sugar by half of the original.
Even better, it's gluten free and sweetened with protein, courtesy of Oobli Crisp 'n Rice milk chocolate. Yum. Only 7 ingredients, all clean, all healthy and natural. And if you're like me, you'll keep 'em in the freezer because they're just oh so good when chilled.
Thin Mint Girl Scout Cookies
Recipe by: Eat with Erika's Erika Fox, RDN
Ingredients:
-
1 bar Oobli Crisp ‘n Rice milk chocolate
-
1 cup almond flour + 2 tbsp
-
¼ cup cacao powder
-
¼ cup maple syrup
-
2 tbsp olive oil
-
1 tsp peppermint extract
-
Dash of salt
Directions:
-
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
-
In a bowl, combine the almond flour, cacao powder, maple syrup, olive oil, peppermint extract and salt. Mix until a dough forms.
-
Roll out the dough into a thin layer. Using the top of a small glass (an espresso cup is perfect for this), press the glass into the dough to create cookie circles.
-
Remove the excess dough, place the circles you cut out onto the baking tray, and re-roll the remaining dough 1-2 more times until used up.
-
Bake the cookies for about 8-9 minutes. Watch carefully in the oven so they don’t burn.
-
While the cookies are baking, place the Rice ‘n Crisp chocolate into a bowl and microwave on 30 second intervals until completely melted.
-
Remove cookies from the oven and let cool. Once cooled, dip each cookie into the chocolate to coat it completely. Place back on the parchment lined baking sheet to set.
-
Enjoy the guilt-free decadence once the chocolate has hardened!
