To begin with this particular recipe, we must prepare a few ingredients. You can have copycat thin mint cookies - crazy easy! using 3 ingredients and 7 steps. Here is how you can achieve that.
The ingredients needed to make Copycat Thin Mint Cookies - Crazy Easy!:

I use Ghiradelli dark chocolate melting wafers or chocolate almond bark to make my thin mints. Whatever you are using just make sure that you use a chocolate that will firm up as it sits. I would not recommend using chocolate morsels, your cookies will not set up the way you want them to. Add the granulated sugar and beat on medium high speed until fluffy and light in color.
Steps to make Copycat Thin Mint Cookies - Crazy Easy!:
- Melt chocolate. You can use whatever chocolate you prefer - dark, semi-sweet chips, chocolate “coating” “confectionery” or “dipping” wafers or chocolate with a bit of coconut oil or shortening mixed into it. I used Wilbur dark chocolate wafers.
- Melt via bain marie method, short bursts in the microwave or in a saucepan. I prefer the bain marie method - it's easiest to control and maintain the chocolate temp. I do not bother tempering the chocolate for this recipe.
- Mix in ¾ teaspoon mint extract to melted chocolate. This might cause your chocolate to thicken up a little - depending on what type of chocolate you're using.
- Dip the Ritz crackers in the chocolate. I drop it in the bowl, gently flip it around with a fork and remove it carefully with two forks. Let excess chocolate drip off. If chocolate is too viscous, you might have to scrape excess off.
- Place dipped cookies onto cookie sheet with wax paper.
- Cool and store cookies in fridge. These cookies are best eaten straight from the fridge. Enjoy : )

Beat in the egg, vanilla extract, and peppermint extract on high speed. Thin Mints are those Girl Scout Cookies that I can eat an entire tube of in a sitting. Since my cravings for mint in the middle of the summer continued, I decided to try my hand at a homemade, no-bake, vegan version of Thin Mints. They should be called Thin Mints Cheater's Mints. Homemade Thin Mints are just as good as the original Girl Scout cookie.
