If You Give A Mouse A Cookie…
He’ll ask for a glass of milk.
If you give a sweets-fiend-blogger a cookie…
She’ll probably ask what’s in it and then make her own… After she eats the cookie you presented her; because that would just be rude. And a sad waste of a cookie. 😉
Green Speckled Mint Chocolate Chip Cookies adapted from Katie’s recipes here and here
Ingredients:
- 1/2 chocolate chips
- 2 cups gluten free flour
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 2 tsp baking powder
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 6 tablespoons maple syrup
- 10 drops(ish) liquid Stevia (or alternative sweetener equaling about 1/2 cup)
- 2 tsp peppermint extract
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup applesauce
- 1/4 cup almond milk
- 1 tsp Spirulina powder (optional for the green speckles)
Directions:
Set the Spriulina powder aside. Mix the dry ingredients together. Mix the wet ingredients in a separate bowl. Add the dry to the wet and stir in chocolate chips. Sprinkle Spriulina onto the cookie dough and briefly stir- creating swirls (??).
Compile your unbaked cookies on a baking sheet and bake at 350 degrees for 8-10 minutes.
Eat and enjoy.
Even if they look like they’re moldy, not green swirled or speckled. They’re still good. 🙂
