HOT TIP: when boycotting, try dupe recipes at home to share with friends. Sometimes there isn't a local alternative brand available but there is always someone with a recipe blog on the internet. I can still have doublestuffed mint chocolate sandwich cookies without funding the capitalist machine crushing my American friends ☺️

This recipe I used
1 cup butter substitute (i used a canola spread)
1 ¼ cups all-purpose flour
½ cup cocoa powder (i use trade aid or donovans)
½ cup golden syrup
1 teaspoon baking powder
¼ teaspoon salt
1 cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Mix in a food processor then set in the fridge for 25 minutes

Filling:
½ cup vegetable shortening
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup powdered sugar
1/4 cup flour
Mint extract to taste

Or just do a small spoonful of peanutbutter as a filling

Roll out the dough to about 5mm thickness. Stamp and cut.

My oven is a joke so not sure the temp but i turn it on and bake for about 8-10 minutes. It will be a low temperature, probably like 170c. They are still soft when i pull them out so I let them sit on the pan to cool before filling and stacking
