How to Make Chocolate Covered Mint Leaves

by Smockity Frocks on July 13, 2010

 Making chocolate covered mint leaves is super easy!

 We have had mint growing in our flower beds in our last two homes. I love having it near the door so I can smell the fresh fragrance whenever I come and go.

Another thing I love about the mint leaves is how easy it is to pick a hand full to garnish iced tea glasses or to dip in chocolate as a garnish for dessert. It is a quick and easy way to pretty up a table.

How to make chocolate covered mint leaves:

  1. Pick a few leaves.
  2. Melt some chocolate.
  3. Dip  the leaves.
  4. Lay them on wax paper and put them in the freezer for a few minutes to harden.
  5. Garnish your dessert plates.

Now I have something fun to do with all that mint we’re growing! Thank you.

And, for the first time ever, I got to link up a tutorial! Not mine, but it is my friend’s 14-yr old daughter making a Cherry Pie. That counts, right?

@Sara at Saving For Someday, Yep, that counts. I just ask that you link back here in your post.

That is a FANTASTIC tutorial! Thank you for sharing!
