Chocolate Mint Sandwiches

Christmas is by far my all time favorite holiday! I love everything about it, the decorations, giving gifts, the reason why we celebrate, and of course all of the baking and candy making! I grew up making candy with my grandma and mom for every Christmas for as long as I can remember! I have so many memories of that and love that my girls get to enjoy it as well. It's now four generations making candy not three and I love that my girls get to make the same memories as i have of this beautiful holiday season! We only made two kinds of candy when I was growing up but now I have created more recipes and fun candy recipes. This one was created especially for my dad, he absolutely loves mint and his favorites are mint sandwiches so I came up with a super simple way to make them at home! Hope you can use this easy recipe to create many memories of candy making with your family!
Ingredients:
6 cups milk chocolate wafers, divided
3 cups green mint wafers

Method:
Melt 3 cups chocolate wafers in the microwave for 30 second intervals, stirring each time, until melted. Pour melted chocolate onto a parchment lined jelly roll pan. Spread evenly across entire pan. Let set until barely tacky. Melt the mint wafers in the microwave for 30 second intervals, stirring each time until melted. Pour over first layer of chocolate, spread evenly. Let set until barely tacky. Melt remaining chocolate the same way. Pour over the mint layer, spreading evenly. Let set until hard. Remove from pan by lifting out the parchment paper. Cut candy into squares. ENJOY!
