GF Peppermint Brownies (using Young Living Peppermint EO)

Yesterday we had a meet and greet at church were asked to bring a dessert.  Since the kids rarely have a choice on snacks I decided to try a new recipe for gluten free brownies.  I also was dying to try some peppermint essential oil in brownies since I love mint brownies.  I couldn't find one that I had all the ingredients to or one that didn't look too overwhelming to make so I mixed and matched recipes and came up with this one.  Definitely not healthy but once in awhile you have to just go for it.  It was a hit!  Hope you enjoy!

Gluten Free Peppermint EO Brownies
1/2 C all purpose gluten free flour
1/2 C sweet white rice flour
1C 100% Cacao (dark choc.) cocoa powder
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
2C sugar
1C semi sweet choc. chips
-------
1C butter (2 sticks)
4 eggs
2 tsp vanilla
10 drops YL peppermint oil

Preheat the oven to 350.
Combine the first 7 ingredients in a small bowl and set aside.
Beat your butter, eggs, vanilla and YL peppermint oil together.  Then slowly add the dry mix and combine completely.
Pour into a greased 9x13 glass pan and sprinkle some extra choc chips on top (optional but so yummy!)
Cook for 25-30 min or until done.  Test with a toothpick.
Cool before cutting and Enjoy!

Note:  I am speaking of using Young Living Essential Oils in the brownies, which is ok to ingest.  Many oils are not pure and not ok to ingest.  Please do your research before using any essential oil orally.
