Chocolate Ritz Mints


Here's another quick holiday treat idea that I saw on kraftfoods.com and had to try.  Melt a bag of chocolate chips and stir in 1/4 tsp peppermint extract.  Dip Ritz crackers in melted chocolate, shake off excess, and let dry on parchment paper.  Before the chocolate dries, sprinkle on some crushed candy cane.  They taste kinda like Thin Mints from Girl Scouts.  You could roll a stack of these up in parchment paper, tie the ends with ribbon and have a cute gift to take along on your holiday adventures.

PS: how cute are Lady's boots?  She was mad she had to wear them so she wouldn't look at the camera, but they protect her paws from the nasty salt they slather on the side walks at the first hint of precipitation.  Fancy, huh?
