These mint patties are too rich for my taste. I think I'll try making them with a darker chocolate next time.

I'm not sure if I did something wrong, but my mint patties turned out really crumbly. I think I might have overmixed the dough.

These mint patties are too sweet for my taste. I think I'll try reducing the amount of sugar next time.
