Homemade Thin Mints
Drumroll please…. Do I have your attention!? I introduce you to my latest vice, because holy crap - not only are these easy, but they are SO good! Mike’s face lit up like Christmas morning when he bit into one of these! (Again, he’s always shocked when I put something good on the table - what is that anyway!?)
I have a pretty intense love of thin mints that I blame completely on my mother. I grew up with a box of these almost always in the freezer. We would sneak one or two when we got off the bus after school. The stash was re-filled every March when the cute little girl scouts showed up on the doorstep. I will now forever have these in my fridge.

1/2 teaspoon peppermint extract
This is just too easy. I love it. I am about to run to the kitchen to make them now.
I’ve had this recipe bookmarked for a while, but hadn’t try it yet, because i was skeptical of how they’d taste with the ritz crackers. Now that I know someone personally who’s made ‘em and loved ‘em, I have to try them too!!! =)
