Homemade Mint Thin Cookies

Steps

• 1

  Preheat oven to 400°F. Place the cake mix in a large bowl.
• 2

  Add 1/2 cup of the melted coconut oil. Mix until well combined. (To melt the coconut oil, place it in a small microwaveable container and heat for 20-30 seconds).
• 3

  Add the mint extract and additional coconut oil 1/2 tablespoon at a time, just until a dough that sticks together forms.
• 4

  Sprinkle the cocoa powder onto a clean surface. Roll the dough onto the surface, using the cocoa powder to keep the dough from sticking to your rolling pin. Roll to a little less than 1/2 inch thickness.
• 5

  Use a 2-3 inch round cookie cutter to cut the dough. Transfer to an ungreased baking sheet.
• 6

  Bake in preheated oven for 6-8 minutes, or just until the cookies are set. Remove and cool completely.
• 7

  Microwave the chocolatey candy melt in your microwave, according to package directions. Dip each cookie into the melted candy coating, then dip the edge into sprinkles, if desired.
• 8

  Transfer to a piece of parchment or plastic wrap until the candy coating has hardened. Serve and enjoy!
