Hi Friends!!
It is good to "see" you! I know I haven't been on much in awhile, but know have missed you!
About this post.....
Now is the time the Girl Scouts are out selling cookies. I don't know about you, but my FAVORITE one they sell are the mint cookies. The sad thing is they don't sell them year round!!
Well....I know many of you have heard or even make them...but if not, here ya go!
These believe it or not actually taste like the real-deal (GS mint cookies) . The nice part is they are soooo easy to make and only use 2 ingredients! I add this "cookie" to my Christmas cookie platter, and they are fast to go!! I used to be involved in alot of bake sales. And one thing they always requested was the following recipe....ummmmm let me re-phrase that!! I was TOLD to make them!!! LOL...Here ya go...
Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper.
Melt 1 box of Andres Mints in a double boiler.
Dip 1 sleeve (1 cracker at a time) of ORIGINAL flavor Ritz crackers into the melted chocolate. Be sure to coat both sides. I use tongs as it is less messy.
Put cookie on parchment paper
.
Let harden. You can also put them in the freezer for 10 minutes to harden faster.
2 ingredients
easy to make
tastes almost like the real thing
Lol dosen't get better than that!! ![]()

I bet I will like these even better tahn the "real Thin Mints", because I liked them better when the cookie was vanilla rather then chocolate.

ineedaname...Hi again dear. Thank you so much. I missed you and so many others on this board. It is good to "see" you too. Hope to talk to you soon. Take care sweetie.

I have made these & they are really good. I use regular chocolate bark & add a teeny touch or peppermint flavoring. They are also good, but not GS good, with a bit of orange flavoring in the chocolate. And, then there is the version with plain chocolate, 2 Ritz crackers with peanut butter between them & then dipped in the chocolate. All good. All requested for Christmas, here.
