Gluten-Free Peppermint Patty Cookies

Adapted from a recipe I got from Allyson in Utah.

Gluten-Free Peppermint Patty Cookies
Makes about 24 cookies

1 pkg. gluten-free chocolate cake mix (I used Gluten-Free Pantry's)
½ c. shortening
1 Tb. Water
2 eggs
1 tsp. peppermint extract*
Peppermint patties
Powdered sugar

Preheat oven to 365°. Mix above ingredients, except for peppermint patties and powdered sugar. Roll batter into 1” ball and roll in powdered sugar. Place 2” apart on a greased cookie sheet and bake for 7-10 minutes. Let cool a couple minutes, and while still warm place a peppermint patty into the center of each cookie and press down.
*(checking to see about gluten- might need to omit this ingredient)

  2. These remind me of Andes Mint cookies I made before finding out I had celiac disease. You make a basic soft, delicious chocolate cookie like your recipe, and then once cooked place one andes mint (or 1/2 a mint) on top of each cook and throw back in the oven for just a few minutes. When you pull them back out, swirl the minty chocolate around with the back of a spoon and let harden. It is SOOOOO delicious!!

  3. It is quite hard to get attention from food industry to people that can eat gluten. But it is nice that you are sharing those recipes for them. If you want more gluten free recipes you can check them out in Generic Viagra
