Those cute little cookie peddlers have just recently put away their boxes of these chocolatey munchables until next year. So if you want to enjoy some Thin Mints, you're going to have to wait a while. Or you could make a homemade version with a little help from TSR. This recipe uses the chocolate wafers from last week's improved Nabisco Oreo cookie clone (March 16, 1998), and it makes the equivalent of three boxes of the chocolate-dipped Girl Scout Cookies favorite.
3 10-ounce bags Nestle Mint
Chocolate Morsels
6 tablespoons shortening
108 chocolate wafers (from TSR improved version of
Nabisco Oreo)
1. Combine mint chocolate chips
with shortening in a large microwave safe glass or
ceramic bowl. Heat on 50% power for 2 minutes, stir (with
a plastic or wooden spoon), then heat for an additional
minute. Stir once again, and if chocolate is not a smooth
consistency, continue to zap in microwave in 30 second
intervals until smooth.
2. Use a fork to dip each wafer in the chocolate, tap the
fork on the edge of the bowl so that the excess chocolate
runs off, and then place the cookies side-by-side on a
wax paper lined baking sheet. Refrigerate until firm.

Tidbits
This recipe was designed to use all of the chocolate
cookie wafers from the TSR improved version of Nabisco
Oreos. However, if you only want to make the equivalent
of one box of Thin Mints, or 36 cookies, simply reduce
the ingredients to 1/3 of what's listed. In other words,
one bag of mint chocolate chips and 2 tablespoons of
shortening will cover 36 chocolate wafers.
