Description

These easy no-bake Ritz Cracker Thin Mints combine the salty crunch of Ritz crackers with smooth, minty chocolate for a treat that tastes like classic Thin Mint cookies.


Ingredients

  • Ritz crackers (about one sleeve, roughly 35 crackers)
  • Andes mints or Andes baking chips (2 cups)

Instructions

  1. Lay out parchment paper or a silicone mat on a baking sheet.
  2. Melt 2 cups of Andes mints in a microwave-safe bowl, heating 30 seconds at a time and stirring until completely smooth.
  3. Using a fork, dip each Ritz cracker into the melted chocolate, allow excess to drip off, then transfer to the lined sheet.
  4. Let them set at room temperature for about 15–30 minutes, or place in the fridge to speed up setting.

Notes

  • Use gluten-free crackers for a GF-friendly option.
  • Try semi-sweet chocolate with peppermint extract if Andes mints aren't available.
  • Top with crushed peppermint, sprinkles, or white chocolate drizzle for extra flair.
  • Store in an airtight container layered with parchment for up to 5 days at room temp, 2 weeks in the fridge, or 3 months in the freezer.
