1/2 teaspoon salt
3 (4.5 ounce) packages chocolate
covered thin mints
DIRECTIONS:
1. In a saucepan over medium heat, cook the sugar, butter and water, stirring
occasionally until melted. Remove from heat, stir in the chocolate chips until melted
and set aside to cool for 10 minutes.
2. Pour the chocolate mixture into a large bowl, and beat in the eggs, one at a time.
Combine the flour, baking soda and salt, stir into the chocolate mixture. Cover and
refrigerate dough for at least 1 hour.
3. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease cookie sheets. Roll cookie
dough into walnut sized balls and place 2 inches apart onto the prepared cookie

4. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes in the preheated oven, be careful not to overbake. When
cookies come out of the oven, Press one mint wafer into the top of each cookie and
let sit for 1 minute. When the mint is softened, swirl with the back of a spoon or
toothpick to make a pattern with the green filling of the mint wafer. For smaller

Ingredients:
bag of mini pretzel twists
2 sticks of butter
1 cup of brown sugar
1 bag of chocolate chips
Sea salt or table salt
Directions:
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees.
Then line a large jelly roll pan with aluminum foil and lay a single layer of pretzels
down. I was pretty meticulous about this and made neat little rows (you can fit more on
that way right?).
In a medium saucepan, melt the butter and the brown sugar until the sugar is
dissolved. Let it boil gently just until it starts to stick to the bottom and it forms a nice
smooth caramel. Youll want to let it bubble a little and get really thick.
Remove from heat and pour evenly over the top of the pretzels (dont worry if every
single pretzel isnt covered). Put in the oven at 350 degrees for five minutes.
Remove from the oven and sprinkle the chocolate chips over the top. You can let the
caramel melt the chips, but I prefer to put it back in the oven for one minute.
Spread the chocolate chips around with a spatula until mostly melted.
Sprinkle generously with salt.
Let cool on the counter top for a few minutes and then pop in the freezer for at least
two to three hours.
When it comes out of the freezer, break it up into uneven chunks with your hands and
serve.
Its that simple! Seriously, the hardest part of this recipe is NOT eating it all.
Quick tip: I found it tastes best when right out of the freezer. It will start to melt after
sitting on the counter top for more than a few minutes.
Note: Do not double. If you want to make a lot of these (who could blame you?), just
whip up a second batch of dough. It will only take a minute.
Glaze
2 egg whites
2 tsp lemon juice
2 cups powdered sugar
In saucepan, heat butter and brown sugar over medium to med-high heat until
bubbling and thick. Cool 10 minutes. Stir in 1/4 cup milk. Add powdered sugar
and beat until smooth.
Preheat oven to 350. Sift flour, salt and baking soda. Mix butter and sugar in
large bowl. Add eggs one at a time. Add bananas and vanilla. Fold in flour
mixture and walnuts and blend. Grease two loaf pans and divide batter
between pans. Bake for one hour or until toothpick comes out clean. Let cool.
