Ingredients

Scale

For the cookies:

  • ½ cup butter
  • 2 cups granulated sugar
  • ½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • ½ cup milk
  • 3 cups quick oats
  • ½ cup shredded coconut (optional)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

For the mint topping:

  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 2 tablespoons butter, softened
  • 2 tablespoons milk
  • ½ teaspoon peppermint extract
  • A few drops of green food coloring

For the chocolate drizzle:

  • ½ cup semisweet chocolate chips
  • 1 teaspoon coconut oil

Instructions

  1. Prepare the cookie base:

    • In a medium saucepan, melt butter over medium heat.
    • Stir in granulated sugar, cocoa powder, and milk. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly, and boil for 1 minute.
    • Remove from heat and mix in oats, shredded coconut (if using), and vanilla extract.

  2. Shape the cookies:

    • Scoop the mixture onto parchment paper, forming small mounds. Flatten each mound slightly with the back of a spoon.
    • Let cookies cool and set for about 30 minutes.

  3. Make the mint topping:

    • In a bowl, mix powdered sugar, softened butter, milk, peppermint extract, and green food coloring until smooth.
    • Spread a small amount of the mint topping over each cooled cookie.

  4. Drizzle with chocolate:

    • Melt chocolate chips with coconut oil in a microwave-safe bowl or using a double boiler. Drizzle over the mint topping.

  5. Chill and serve:

    • Place cookies in the fridge for 15–20 minutes to set the chocolate. Serve chilled or at room temperature.

Notes

  • For a more festive touch, add sprinkles or crushed candy canes on top of the mint layer before the chocolate drizzle.
  • Use gluten-free oats for a gluten-free version.
