Gluten-Free "Thin Mints"

The happiness is real. 

I'm tellin you guys. When I found out that I couldn't have gluten any more, I knew I would miss some things. But it didn't occur to me at that moment that my heart, in fact, would be able to go on. 

But that did take a solid year. A year of agony. Of turning down some of the cutest little Girl Scouts ever. So let me save you the pain- the agony. You can be happy again. In only 15 minutes. 




Ingredients: 
- 1 package of gluten-free 'Oreos'
- 1- 12oz bag of semi- sweet chocolate chips
- 1 1/2 tsp. mint extract


First, twist apart all of the Oreos and remove the cream (whether it's with a knife or your mouth, I don't judge). 


Next, melt the chocolate chips. When it has reached a smooth consistency, remove from heat and add the mint extract. 

Dip the cookies in using a fork. Tap off the extra chocolate (or leave it on...), and place the cookies on parchment paper. 
Let them dry.

I know you hate me for that, but let me assure you. They're so much better dry. Totally worth the wait.
