Thin Mints

1/2 lb semi-sweet dark chocolate (melting baking chocolate or dark chocolate chips)
2-3 drops peppermint extract
1 sleeve Ritz Crackers
crushed candy canes

Melt chocolate over low heat or in a glass cup at 15-second intervals in the microwave (stir after each 15 seconds.)

Stir 2-3 drops of peppermint extract into the melted chocolate (don't use too much peppermint--the 2-3 drops is plenty.)

Dip each Ritz Cracker in the melted chocolate and place on a foil covered cookie sheet making sure they don't touch each other.

Sprinkle each dipped cracker with a small amount of crushed candy cane.

Chill. Eat. Enjoy.
