Homemade thin mints

I make these every Christmas. they are my favorite!


Ingredients
  • 20 Ritz crackers (don't use low-fat or low-salt)
  • 6 ounces of mint  chocolate chips
  • 1 tablespoon shortening
Instructions
  1. First, line a pan with parchment or wax paper.
  2. In a double boiler (or a bowl set over a pan of barely simmering water), melt the chocolate and shortening.  Using two forks, dip the cookies one at a time into the chocolate. Move them to the pan to cool.
  3. I personally think these taste best chilled in the freezer
