Mike Cooks!

Here’s an old recipe, I don’t even know where I got it. I found it in my little recipe box handwritten on a slip of paper. I’ve never even tried it till today, but the cookies did turn out fantastic!!

Ingredients

• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 1/2 tsp. baking soda
• 1/2 cup cocoa
• 1/2 cup brown sugar
• 1/3 cup granulated sugar
• 1/4 cup butter, softened
• 1/4 cup applesauce
• 1 tsp. vanilla extract
• 1/4 tsp. mint extract
• 1 large egg white, beaten

Directions:

Combine flour, baking soda and cocoa together in a bowl and mix. In a separate bowl, combine brown sugar, granulated sugar, butter, applesauce, extracts and egg white and beat with a hand mixer until well blended. Combine flour mixture with sugar mixture to form dough. Roll into a log and cover with plastic wrap. Place in the freezer for about 1 hour until firm. Slice into quarter inch pieces and place on a baking sheet lined with parchment. Bake at 350 for about 10 minutes. Cool and serve.
