Storing Leftovers
If you happen to have any leftover Ritz Cracker Thin Mints (though it’s unlikely with how delicious they are!), you can store them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week. Alternatively, you can refrigerate the Thin Mints for longer storage, though be sure to let them come to room temperature before serving for the best taste and texture.
FAQ
Can I use milk or white chocolate instead of dark chocolate? Absolutely! Feel free to use your favorite type of chocolate for the coating, whether it’s dark, milk, or white chocolate.
Can I omit the peppermint extract? If you prefer a more subtle mint flavor, you can omit the peppermint extract from the chocolate coating. The Thin Mints will still be delicious with just the chocolate and Ritz crackers.
Can I add other toppings or decorations? Certainly! Get creative with your Thin Mints by adding toppings like sprinkles, chopped nuts, or drizzles of additional chocolate for a fun and festive touch.
