Ingredients
- 1/2 cup olive oil
- 1 cup sugar
- 1/2 cup fresh mint leaves
- 1 egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 1 cup flour
- 1/2 cup cocoa powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup chopped dark chocolate
- Flaky sea salt

Dessert
Deep cocoa cookies use olive oil, fresh mint sugar, and sea salt for a grown-up chocolate-mint finish.
Use dry mint leaves for the sugar so the cookie dough stays glossy rather than wet.
