Scout Cookie

Instructions

1. Whisk together flour, cocoa powder, and salt in a medium bowl.
2. Cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy, then beat in the egg and peppermint extract.
3. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture until a dough forms.
4. Roll dough into a log, wrap in plastic, and chill for at least two hours.
5. Preheat oven to 350°F and slice the chilled dough into 1/4-inch thick rounds.
6. Bake for 10-12 minutes on a lined sheet and let cool completely on a wire rack.
7. Melt chocolate with coconut oil and peppermint oil, then dip each cookie to coat.
8. Place on parchment paper and let the chocolate set before serving.

Tips

• Make sure the dough is very cold before slicing to maintain a perfect circle shape.
• Use high-quality peppermint oil for the coating to get that authentic cooling sensation.
• If the chocolate thickens while dipping, reheat it in 10-second intervals.
