Girl Scout Chocolate Mint Cookies

A Girl Scout copycat with only two ingredients - one of which will surprise you!

Girl Scout cookie time always makes me so happy...until I moved to Ft. Drum. For some reason, I can never find a girl scout to purchase 8 billion boxes from. So, I have taken matters into my own hands. If you like Thin Mints, make these...they are well worth it and pretty dang close. I think the Ritz cracker adds a little bit of texture difference than a regular Thin Mint and there is a touch of saltiness that isn't in the original, but I didn't mind that because it reminded me a little of chocolate-covered pretzels. I also put mine in the freezer because that's how I eat my Thin Mints :] I'm just excited to have such a simple way to get my fix of them all year round!!

What you need:

  • 2 cups mint chocolate chips or Andes mints

  • 70 Ritz crackers

Directions:

  1. Melt your chocolate in 30 second increments in microwave, stirring after each increment until smooth and completely melted.

  2. Dip crackers one at a time.

  3. Place on wax paper until the chocolate sets.

  4. Store in an airtight container.
