Homemade Thin Mint Girl Scout Cookies

Did you procrastinate neighbor gifts like I did??

No worries, here is the EASIEST recipe for the YUMMIEST treat!  


These bad boys taste JUST like Girl Scout cookies and all you need are TWO THINGS:
Andes Chopped Mints Ritz Crackers

Directions:
Melt 1 bag of mints for 1 minute in microwave, stir.
Drop Ritz cracker in chocolate, flip over with fork.
Lay on wax paper (tin foil works too).



Put cookies in cellophane bag, tie on a free printable from MommybyDayCrafterbyNight and you're good to go!  Neighbors will beg for the recipe, I had 2 ask me already!!


My sister-in-law Ashley suggested I make her mom's thin mint cookies since they're so easy.  Her mom uses bakers chocolate and mint extract. This awesome tut by Poofy Cheeks convinced me to use the bag of mints instead. I'll be making this again and again!!

Note: 1 bag made 45 cookies for me, so you can gauge the amount.
