Mock Girl Scout Thin Mints

If you like "Thin Mint" cookies, try this. Melt some semi-sweet chocolate chips with a little bit of Crisco. Take off the stove and add some peppermint extract. Dip Nilla Wafers in this mixture and allow to cool on waxed paper.

RE: Mock Girl Scout Thin Mints

I forgot to add if you use the Andees chocolate mints, you will not need the peppermint extract. I use the microwave to melt them, just doing them 30 seconds at a time on medium power and stirring each time. It doesn't take long,

I will sometimes just put a couple of TBS of the mints in a bowl, melt them and just do four or five cookies for a snack.

I just made some and they turned out great. You can also add some crushed peppermint candy to the top before they dry to make them more festive on your cookie plate. (12/15/2009)
