This is another simple recipe. There’s only a few ingredients and I think it’s pretty fool proof. These could be eaten plain as brownies, or topped with a mint icing as cupcakes. We opted to top them with So Delicious Mint Chip ice cream and were not disappointed.

Makes 12 brownie/cupcakes:

• 1 cup flour
• 1/2 cup cocoa powder
• 3/4 teaspoon baking powder
• 1/8 teaspoon baking soda
• 1 cup almond milk (or other non dairy milk)
• 1/2 cup sugar (I used coconut sugar)
• 1/2 cup vegetable oil
• 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
• 1/2 tsp peppermint extract
• 2 fresh peppermint leaves cut fine
• 2-4 tbsp mini chocolate chips

Directions:

• Set oven to 350°F.
• Grease muffin tins/silicone mold/etc.
• Mix all the dry ingredients together.
• Mix the wet ingredients into the dry.
• Fold in the peppermint leaves and chocolate chips.
• Bake for 25-35 minutes.
• Top with mint chocolate chip ice cream.
• Garnish with mint leaf.
