How To Make Girl Scout Thin Mint Cookies: Recipe


selling cookies is a valuable part of
the Girl Scout experience and it teaches
important skills like planning finance
and teamwork hi I’m Rebecca Brayton and
welcome to watchmojo.com and today we’ll
be showing you how to make your very own
Girl Scout Thin Mints all year long for
the cookies you’ll need 3 tablespoons of
butter 1 egg white a quarter cup of
brown sugar a pinch of baking soda half
a teaspoon of salt a quarter cup of
cocoa powder half a cup of flour plus a
quarter cup and two drops of peppermint
extract and for the coating you’ll need
one bag of chocolate chips and an eighth
of a bar paraffin wax start by
preheating your oven to 325 and then
combine all the cookie ingredients in a
bowl starting with half a cup of the
flour
next make sure your dough is rollable by
adding flour until it’s no longer sticky
transfer your dough to a work surface
and then roll it out until it’s very
thin about a quarter-inch thick
using a cookie cutter cut your dough
into the desired shape and then place
the cookies on an ungreased baking sheet
keep rolling the remaining dough and cut
more cookies until your day
now bake them for four to seven minutes
or until the edges have ground and firm
once that’s done remove them from the
oven and allow them to cool meanwhile on
the stovetop and a double boiler melt
the chocolate and the paraffin wax now
the wax is added to ensure a glossy coat
on the cookies
when that’s totally melted take one
cookie at a time and cover it in the
chocolate coating then place it on a
wire rack that has waxed paper under it
to allow the excess chocolate to drip
off
once the extra chocolate is dripped off
transfer them to a piece of wax paper
and allow them to set completely if you
feel like getting a little creative use
your extra chocolate to decorate the
tops
this recipe is for those times of years
you just can get your hands on a box of
thin mints and need a fix but if you can
get out and support your girl scouts by
picking up a box from them
