Easy Peasy Thin Mints

Apple Cake

This delectable Apple Cake has a slightly crunchy crust and a soft moist center that is loaded with chunks of sweet apple and pecans. It is perfectly spiced with cinnamon, ground cloves and nutmeg. It is lightly drizzled with an easy four ingredient caramel sauce. I make this cake several times each fall for bake sales, potlucks and family and friend get-togethers.

Easy Ratatouille

This easy ratatouille recipe is a classic summer French stew filled with vibrant, colourful and nutritious vegetables: tomatoes, zucchini and eggplant. It is a low-carb, gluten-free and vegan dish that can be made in one pan and served atop greens or grains, as a side to a main entrée, or all on its own.

i’ve made something close to this with Girl Scout thin mints….lay one ritz then put a mint, melt in microwave for just a few seconds, put another ritz on top then coat in chocolate! EZ!!!!!!

This is MY recipe : ) Our oven was out, I needed to take a dessert to a gathering and was short on time, and I walked around the store thinking, “What is something really easy that doesn’t require baking that I can tonight as a dessert?”

I saw the Ritz Crackers and remembered my mom making chocolate covered Ritz when I was a child. Then I saw the Andes Mints and thought, “AHA! Thin Mints made ez!”

My son thought I was crazy. Then I saw the endcap item which was “Special Ritz Cookies”……Ritz own premade chocolate Ritz cookies….only a lot more expensive! I sad, “See! I’m NOT crazy!”

They were easy…..they were a hit……and they’re a standby now when we need a quick and ez dessert.

Great recipe!
