Ingredients
- 2 packages Andes Creme De Menthe Thins 56 individual mints total
- 1 sleeve Ritz crackers approx. 24 crackers

- Fill the sauce pan with 2 inches of water.
- Place glass bowl over the water, making sure that the water doesn't touch the bottom of the bowl. If it does, just pour a little water out.
- Unwrap each mint and place in the glass bowl. Turn heat on medium high, until water comes to a soft boil and the chocolate begins to melt.
- In the meantime, line a baking sheet with waxed paper and set aside.
- Stir the chocolate periodically, until chocolate is completely melted, then turn heat down to a simmer.
- One by one, place a cracker in the chocolate, turning to coat with both forks. Use both forks to take the cracker out of the chocolate and place on waxed paper.
- Repeat with remaining crackers until there isn't enough chocolate to coat a cracker.
- Let the Chocolate Mint Ritz cool until chocolate is hardened. Store in airtight container for up to a week.
