COPYCAT FANTASTIC CHOCOLATE MINT FRANGOS
Mmmmm! These Frangos will melt in your mouth! They are so easy to make and also make great gifts. After cutting the Frangos into small pieces, I individually wrap each piece in pretty cellophane paper, and then place all pieces in either a cool coffee mug, a pretty box, or a lovely bag. I then take a colorful recipe card and write out the recipe to include with the gift because people always ask me for it once they have tasted these! Please note that the prep time does not include chill time.

ERIKA'S "FRANGO" MINTS
This recipe was passed on to my mom from her dear friend Erika Brooks who was an amazing cook, baker, and cake decorator in 1984. This recipe is based on the famous Frango® candy that was sold at the Bon Marche in Seattle, WA. I have substituted other extracts for different flavors. If I want a pretty look, I pipe the chocolate into small candy papers with a pastry tip. The result is a soft smooth chocolate candy.

FRANGO MINTS
Those wonderful, delectable, melt-in-your-mouth chocolates...those of you in the Northwest, especially, will recognize these candies. The recipe comes from a cookbook put out by volunteers and employees of a hospital in Washington state. Delish!! The number of mints you get, depends on how big you make them. I usually make them the size of a quarter or thereabouts. Refrigeration time is not listed.

Steps:
- Cream butter shortening and sugars until light, fluffy, and well-combined. Add eggs, vanilla and 1/4 cup grated Frango mints. Beat until creamy and well-blended. Sift flour, baking soda, and salt together in a separate bowl. Add sifted ingredients to beaten egg mixture, blending carefully. Beat for about 20 seconds. Fold in chopped nuts and 1 1/2 cups chopped Frango mints. Beat for 30 seconds. Drop heaping teaspoons of cookie dough on to greased cookie sheets, allowing at least 1-inch space between cookies. Bake in preheated 375°F oven for 8 to 11 minutes. Remove cookies from cookie sheet and allow to cool on rack.
Tips:
- For the best results, use high-quality chocolate. A good chocolate will have a smooth, rich flavor and will melt evenly.
- If you don't have a candy thermometer, you can check the temperature of the chocolate by dropping a small amount into a glass of cold water. If the chocolate hardens immediately, it is ready to use. If it takes a few seconds to harden, it needs to be cooked for a little longer.
- Be careful not to overcook the chocolate, or it will become grainy and lose its flavor.
- If you are using a double boiler to melt the chocolate, make sure that the bottom of the bowl does not touch the water. This will prevent the chocolate from overheating and burning.
- You can add a variety of flavors to your chocolate mints, such as peppermint extract, vanilla extract, or orange zest.
- If you want to make your chocolate mints extra special, you can decorate them with sprinkles, chopped nuts, or dried fruit.
