1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder

1 teaspoon peppermint extract

1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/4 teaspoon salt

1 cup crushed chocolate mint cookies (like Thin Mints)

Fresh mint leaves for garnish

Instructions
 

Melt the Chocolate: In a double boiler over low heat, combine the dark chocolate chips and sweetened condensed milk. Stir continuously until melted and smooth.

    Combine the Mixtures: Once the chocolate is melted, remove it from heat. Add cocoa powder, peppermint extract, vanilla extract, and salt. Mix well until all ingredients are fully incorporated.

      Add Cookies: Gently fold in the crushed chocolate mint cookies until evenly distributed throughout the mixture.

        Set the Mixture: Line an 8x8-inch baking pan with parchment paper. Pour the chocolate mixture into the pan, spreading it evenly. Smooth the top with a spatula.

          Chill: Refrigerate the pan for at least 2 hours, or until firm.

            Slice into Squares: Once firm, lift the fudge out of the pan using the parchment paper. Cut into small squares or rectangles.

              Garnish and Serve: Arrange the chocolate squares on a serving plate and garnish with fresh mint leaves.
