Butter Cracker Thin Mints

You can use Ritz crackers for this or go the frugal route (I know I will) and use a store brand butter cracker. This is incredibly easy and I wonder why I never thought of this. Quantity made is approximate.

Servings 40 thin mints

Ingredients
  

  • 500 grams chocolate compound, (chocolate bark, 1 lb)
  • 3/4 teaspoon peppermint extract
  • 40 butter crackers, Ritz or your choice, and as needed

Instructions
 

  • Setup a double boiler and add the chocolate compound. Heat until the chocolate is fully melted. Stir in the peppermint extract. Line a baking pan or two with parchment paper or foil.
  • When the chocolate is ready, drop a cracker in the chocolate, flip it over with a fork then lift it out and drip off excess, place the cracker on the paper or foil.
  • Repeat until all the chocolate is used, I sprinkled the mints with some chocolate sprinkles I had on hand. I used 2 sleeves of a store brand cracker and made 45 mints.
  • Allow crackers to fully cool or if in a rush, place them in the fridge for a few minutes.
  • Serve and enjoy.

Notes

This is low cost based on the amount of mints made.
