Raw Thin Mint Peppermint Patties

It all started with a hankering for a peppermint patty. A week later, I have three delicious, perfected recipes that can combine in a multitude of ways. Chocolate wafer cookie? Thin mint? Peppermint Patty? Minty “Oreo”? You can make them all. And to top it off, I used leftover nut-milk pulp for the cookies.

Raw Mint “Oreos”

 

All of the above were made from just three recipes. They are: Chocolate Cookies, Mint Filling and Chocolate Coating. From those three recipes, you can make all the options pictured!

I have been working on a recipe for a hard chocolate coating that will stay shiny but not be sticky. I have no patience for tempering and want a great taste. After a few experiments, I found a formula I love. And it works great for all of the treats above. The recipe is below.

A quick note: at times, I find things for the kitchen that I just can not resist. One of my latest transgressions was this Mini Whoopie Pie Pan. I knew I would never make mini whoopie pies, but I could see the potential for raw food. It makes a great mold! Just pack the raw dough into the cups, freeze and pop it out. If you are into that sort of thing, this pan works great. (click the link to order one)

    I made the oreo mint cookies and they were a hit. They made exactly 24 wafers as you said. I did not have the nut milk pulp. So instead I processed walnuts, hazelnuts and pecans to equal 2 1/2 cups, so I had to add a little bit more coconut oil. I did not have the pan so I shaped the cookies using a shot glass. Probably a bit more time consuming but it worked. My kids loved these. They said they taste ‘better than oreos’ –and they are a very tough crowd to please! Thanks for this recipe it was awesome!

    Oh I would love to make these, but we have a nut allergy (among others) in the house! I am not good enough with substitutions yet to figure out what to do but I will be saving this and trying to come up with an alternative to the almond flour/nut milk pulp. I will share this in the hopes someone else will make it for me so I can enjoy it as is somewhere else though!

    Wow! We have a biscuit in Australia called Mint Slice which is like the choc covered oreo, but with one chocolate biscuit topped with a peppermint patty and coated in chocolate. I used to love these as a child, and now I can make a healthier substitute for my boys. Thanks!!!
