For the love of peppermint!

​Double chocolate peppermint gluten free cookies. Using my CPTG peppermint essential oil is so yummy and versatile in many recipes. I can’t imagine not using my oils to cook with. I made a large batch of these cookies (4 dozen) and I used 4 drops in total. A little goes a long way when you are using pure essential oils. I also use a drop in hot chocolate to make for a minty warm drink. I use chocolate nut milk with raw cocoa powder and again a drop of peppermint. It helps to clear your sinuses too - what a bonus!
What's the difference between peppermint essential oil and peppermint extract? Peppermint oil is pure peppermint, whereas peppermint extract is a peppermint flavoured solution that has lots of stuff in it you don’t need. So why would you not use pure peppermint oil?
Also don’t forget that peppermint settles tummy troubles. Ingredients: Raw unsweetened cocoa powder, gluten free flour, baking soda, salt, maple syrup, eggs or in my case I used flaxseed as egg replacement, vanilla, coconut oil and vegan chocolate chips. Yummy!!!
