I recently got to attend my first blog conference organized by one of my favorite bloggers Six Sisters. It was such a blast and I loved being able to meet the Six Sisters in person. They are such an amazing and talented group of girls. I learned so much at the conference and was able to make friendships with other fellow bloggers at the conference.
The Six Sisters just released their first cookbook. I was so excited to buy a copy at the conference and there are so many great recipes and fun crafts inside! Book is available here. I have seen these thin mint truffles on pinterest. Thin mint cookies are my favorite girl scout cookies with Samoas coming in at a close second. I knew that I had to make these delicious truffles and I loved how easy they were! I took them to a party with me on Saturday and they were a huge hit. The mint flavor and chocolate in these combined make them amazing!
Rating: 5 stars Difficulty of Recipe: 2 stars
Review: I used the entire package of cream cheese and the original recipe called for 1/2 package. They were so yummy but you can reduce the cream cheese in half if you want to. These are also so fun for St Patricks Day or anytime you want a fun treat! I will be making these again, especially when thin mints are my favorite!

In a food processor pulse the thin mint cookies until they are a fine consistency.
Using a hand mixer whisk together the thin mint crumbs and cream cheese.
Roll the mixture into tablespoon-sized balls and set on a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper.
Chill the balls in the fridge for at least 2 hours to harden. This will make it easier to roll the melted chocolate.
Melt the green mint chips in the microwave stirring 30 seconds at a time being careful not to overheat.
Roll the balls in the melted chocolate to coat and place them back on the baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
For the white chocolate drizzle, melt the chocolate 30 seconds at a time until melted. Spoon the melted chocolate into a plastic baggie and cut a tiny slit in the corner and drizzle the chocolate over the top of the truffles.
Store the truffles in the fridge until ready to serve.
