Chocolate Mint Biscuits

I can stress enough how delicious these biscuits are. Let's put it this way, I've done it yesterday and there was not that much left at the end of the day. The mint is not strong, it only leaves a subtle after taste. I've done it a bit flat as I wanted it to be crunchy but you can do it a bit thicker if you prefer. Either way you have to try it! I promise you will love it!




Ingredients:
1 1/4 cup of all-purpose flour
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup cocoa powder
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp baking soda
3/4 cup spread
3 tbsp almond milk (you can use the one you prefer)
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/2 tsp peppermint extract



Method:
1 - In a large bowl combine all the dry ingredients well
2 - Add the remaining ingredients and knead it with your hands until it comes together and all the flour is incorporated. Add a bit more of flour if needed
3 - Chill the dough in the refrigerator for 1 hour
4 - Pre-heat the oven at 180c
5 - Roll a heaping teaspoon of cookie dough into a ball and place onto prepared baking sheets.
6 - Evenly flatten the dough with your fingertips so that it is about ¼ inch thick and bake for 12-14 minutes.

Enjoy!
