Mint Thins

I made these for a cookie party for my Mom who works at a high school. Everyone including the cooking teacher just raved about them!

My only complaint is I find the peppermint candies and the candy canes hard to crush to a fine enough texture. I had some caramels on hand, so I made another variation where I spread a thin layer of melted caramel on the cracker and let it set before I dipped into the bare chocolate. With the peanut butter and caramel varieties, I would use Milk Chocolate instead of semi sweet or bitter sweet. Definitely will make again. The possibilities are endless!

Very good! Had several requests for the recipe.

After reading the other reviews I made this recipe expecting something resembling a "thin mint" cookie. I found them to be extremely messy to serve and eat (the chocolate starts melting as soon as you touch). Overall, it tasted like a cracker dipped in chocolate. It was okay, but nothing to write home about.

Oh my goodness! Easy and very good... went over big with my boys!

Very easy and delicious! I had some bamboo skewers and used one of those to pick up the cookie out of the chocolate (stuck the tip in one of the holes) and it was easy to scrape the excess chocolate off with a spoon. Instead of peppermint, I used some holly and berry sprinkle on candy decorations.

This one is a keeper! My husband was reluctant at first with the thought of using Ritz - but these are AWESOME! Best to keep cold either in the fridge or freezer. We also dipped marshmallows and Oreos ~ Yum! We left the peppermint candies off the top, but if I were giving these as a gift or had them out for company, I'd decorate them with the crushed mints. You must try! Also, I used tongs to pick up the crackers and used spatula to wipe off excess and melted over the stove using double boiler method.

Very good, easy to make, I made mine with half a bag of Andes chocolates and half a bag of milk chocolate chips and no extract. Hope the 1st grade teachers like them! :)

These are GREAT and EASY!! Made for a cookie exchange and loved them. Use a spatula to scrape extra choc. off cracker. I used the andes peppermint crumbles and they were great. Would make over and over again.

These are very easy to make. They were a hit with my neighbors.
