How to Make Chocolate Peppermint Cookies
These quick & easy chocolate peppermint cookies start with our trusty flax eggs as the egg substitute and binder. Once the flax has had a few minutes to rest and thicken, we start adding the remaining ingredients to the same bowl (yay for minimal dishes!). Melted coconut oil helps create crispy edges and a fudgy center, while coconut sugar or cane sugar provides the sweetness, vanilla extract is a cookie classic, and peppermint extract makes them perfectly minty! The gluten-free (and grain-free) flour duo in these cookies relies on trusty almond flour for a tender center plus tapioca flour for crispy edges and more binding. Cocoa powder + chocolate chips give these double chocolate goodness, while baking powder and salt provide lift and flavor. The final touch is a sprinkling of crushed candy canes for holiday cheer and extra minty flavor! We hope you LOVE these cookies!
