The ability to make impossibly decadent fudge with under 100 calories per piece should be listed under “special skills” on our resume. And this new recipe tastes JUST like Girl Scouts Thin Mints cookies… Try it for yourself and see! (Don’t worry -- even though this recipe contains peanut butter, you’ll only taste rich chocolatey mint!)
