GLUTEN FREE CHOCOLATE MINT M&M COOKIES RECIPE:

**A NOTE ABOUT THIS RECIPE**  Prior to making these cookies, first prepare the flour mix below. I realize that this is an extra step (sorry!), so as soon as time permits, I will convert the flour mix so that it's part of the cookie recipe, thus avoiding the extra step and having any left-over flour.  In the meantime...these cookies are delicious and I hope you'll give them a try!

2/3 cup cocoa powder
1/2 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1/2 tsp. xanthan gum
