List of Ingredients




1/2 cup sugar
3 tablespoons canola oil
1 egg
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 cup baking cocoa
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
4 tablespoons nonfat milk, divided
2 tablespoons butter, softened
1 1/3 cups confectioners' sugar
1/8 teaspoon mint extract
4 drops red food coloring (optional)


Recipe



In a bowl, beat sugar and oil until crumbly. Add egg; beat for 1 minute. Combine flour, cocoa, baking soda and salt. Gradually beat into sugar mixture. Add 2 tablespoons milk; mix well. With lightly floured hands, roll dough into 36 balls.
Place 2 inches apart on baking sheets coated with cooking spray. Flatten slightly with a glass coated with cooking spray. Bake at 425° for 5-6 minutes or until edges are set and tops are cracked. Cool for 2 minutes before removing to wire racks to cool.
In a mixing bowl, combine butter and confectioners' sugar until crumbly. Beat in extract, food coloring in desired and remaining milk. Spread on the bottom of half of the cookies; top with remaining cookies. Yield: 1-1/2 dozen.
