Steps:
- Line 2 cookie sheets with wax paper.
- In a large pot, combine butter, sugar, cocoa and milk. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring frequently, and boil 1-2 minutes.
- Stir in vanilla and salt. Add oats and coconut and stir to combine.
- Drop into 24 spoonfuls onto wax paper. Refrigerate until set.
- Meanwhile, make the frosting. To a stand mixer (or use a hand mixer), add butter, icing sugar and milk and beat until creamy and blended. Add in mint extract and food coloring. If necessary, add an extra tbsp sugar or milk to achieve the right consistency -- you do not want the icing runny.
- Remove cookies from the fridge and spread with frosting. Return to the fridge to let the frosting set.
- Make the ganache: In a small pot, combine chocolate, milk and butter over very low heat. Cook and stir constantly until chocolate is smooth. Set aside to cool 5-10 minutes. Spread on cooled cookies, and return to the refrigerator to allow chocolate to set.
- Because they are slightly gooey, I like to store them in the fridge or freezer with wax paper between layers so they don't stick together.

Tips:
- Use high-quality chocolate chips for the best flavor. Semi-sweet or dark chocolate chips work well in this recipe.
- If you don't have chocolate chips, you can use chopped chocolate bars instead. Just be sure to chop the chocolate into small pieces so that it melts evenly.
- If you want a minty flavor, add 1/2 teaspoon of peppermint extract to the cookie batter.
- If you don't have a microwave, you can melt the butter and chocolate in a saucepan over low heat, stirring constantly.
- Be sure to chill the cookie dough for at least 30 minutes before shaping it into balls. This will help the cookies hold their shape better.
- If the cookie dough is too sticky to handle, add a little more powdered sugar.
- Roll the cookie balls in additional powdered sugar before serving for a sweeter flavor.

These chocolate mint no-bake cookies are a quick and easy treat that is perfect for any occasion. They are made with simple ingredients and can be customized to your liking. Whether you like them minty or chocolatey, these cookies are sure to satisfy your sweet tooth.
