This is one of my all-time favorites!
Quick and easy

Elizabeth Hooton from MACON, GA

This is also very good made with Nestle Milk Chocolate Morsels. Can't wait to try it with the new Nestle Chocolatier morsels, too.
grandson likes these

mary register from EASTMAN, GA

My grandson is very picky about all his food but these wafers are a treat to him, so I try to make them for him . The rest of the family likes them also but have a hard time getting any because if you don't watch him (my grandson) he'll eat them all!
yummmmy

Evonne Robertson from Fraser, MI

These are easy to make and are very good. We will be making them for our Christmas cookie trays.
Awesome!

Carlie Berg from LaCrosse, WI

These are awesome! I tried them once for a Christmas baking contest and I won because of them. They are perfect for freezing and sharing, but I would suggest quadrupling the recipe otherwise you won't have enough to last a while or to trade with.
Very Easy

CHERI BODENSTEIN from JACKSON, MO

The hardest part to this yummy candy is putting it down. Will definitely make again.
Pretty

LAURA JOHNSON from RACINE, WI

I made these and packaged them in tins for gifts, and I got a lot of comments. Instead of using the plain old red and white mints, I used some different colored candy canes, and it turned out very festive.
so simple

Sara Dick from WAYNESBORO, PA

This is such a simple and yummy recipe. I had my two year old help and she loved it!!
Very wintery

chocolate peppermint wafers

billie curtis from Bakersfield, CA

I've had these before without chocolate and they were good. I made this recipe with the chocolate on them and went to heaven what a combination!!! I'm going to make these every chance I get.
Chocolate Peppermint Wafers

Alice Keeney from STRONGSVILLE, OH

My husband loves peppermint candy and this has become one of his favorites. I like the fact that it's so quick and easy to make.
Great Idea!

Bonnie Rizzo from Plainfield IL

What a wonderful way to get rid of those extra candy canes, or use up those that get broken. This is a good recipe for Valentines Day, too -- or anytime! Quick, easy to do for a hostess gift as well--will use this often.
GREAT TREAT!

Ms. Blaschuk from FARMINGDALE, NY

Who doesn't like chocolate and peppermint together? I was a little skeptical about using the white chocolate but the results turned out delicious. And, what could be easier than microwaving? This was super simple and very tasty. I would make this year round . . . it is that good. A definite keeper. My best friend had one and immediately asked for the recipe!

Very refreshing cookie. I liked using semi- sweet chocolate because it wasn't too sweet.

Chocolate Peppermint Wafers

Louetta Ewoldsen from WINTERSET, IA

These are so easy to make and really good, I used candy canes, there are different flavors and just smashed them in a plastic bag. They look neat with the different colors.
wonderful!

LISA K from GREEN VALLEY, IL

I first made this with leftover candy canes and wow, is it good!! I can't stop eating this candy.
Chocolate Peppermint Wafers

Barbara Bringuel from CAMERON PARK, CA

This candy is the BEST. Until I saw this recipe, I had only eaten the white chocolate with crushed peppermints. There's nothing better than peppermint and chocolate. And I may try adding peppermint extract for future batches. This is the kind of candy I love to tuck in with cookies at holiday time for family and friends. And this is a wonderful gift to take to people who are homebound when you visit them.
GREAT PEPPERMINT CANDY

Betty Pendley from PALMETTO, FL

I MADE THIS CANDY FOR OUR GREAT GRANDKIDS FOR CHRISTMAS, AND, THEY LOVED IT. IT IS SO EASY TO MAKE THAT NEXT TIME I WILL TAKE THE INGREDIENTS ALONG AND LET THEM MAKE IT.
Chocolate Peppermint Wafers

BRIDGETT TYSSEN from CYPRESS, TX

These were very easy to make. Great recipe for young kids to try out! Unfortunately they did not go over as well as we had hoped, but we had fun making them together. My son was not fond of the white chocolate so we made a second batch of regular chocolate dipped in white chocolate, and one that was just plain chocolate with peppermint.
YUM!

April M from

I made 3 batches of these for my family Christmas and they were a hit! And incredibly easy to make. Definitely something I will be making regularly around here. We all love peppermint and chocolate, this is perfect!
Very festive looking

Judy Beringer from GARRETSON, SD

These where easy to make. They looked very festive on the plate with other candies.
Tasty Candy

Rosalee Patten from CLEMONS, IA

How great to have a holiday candy that does not include nuts. Several in my family are allergic to nuts and it is included in so many recipes. These were SO easy to make and my family loved them.
Chocloate Peppermint Wafers A+++

Kim F from ODENVILLE, AL

My mom and kids loved them. I am going to take to my son's school and scout Christmas parties. I did them with the mints in the chocolate and dipped in the white Chocolate and this way, both were GREAT!! I can't wait to see what every one else thinks of them. I am also going to try them with sugar free chocloate and mints, I'll let everone know how they turned out.
Wounderful!

Paul Hehl from W CARROLLTON, OH

This was very easy to make and are wounderful
So EASY and So Delicious

Brandy O'Brien from Aloha, OR

This recipe was so simple. The hardest part was breaking up the candy canes...and that wasn't so bad. Everyone loves them. I added a splash of Peppermint extract for that extra flavor and YUM!
WOW!

Lisa DeAngelis from VIRGINIA BEACH, VA

I still cannot get over how incredibly simple these were to make. The children could really help out, and the finished product was spectacular AND delicious!
Chocolate Peppermint Wafers

Kaye Wurm from Menomonie, WI

I have had these, but not dipped in the chocolate. I will make them this year from this recipe. Chocolate and mint is my favorite combination.
Chocolate Peppermint Wafers

Jane Evenson from MAPLE FALLS, WA

I made a batch of these for friends and they all asked for the recipe. Great as a gift selection.
yum!

levismom from

You might as well double this recipe. I couldn't stop eating them once they were made!
A gift for the Mother-in-Law

Anne Peterson from California, MD

I have a mother-in-law in Mo and she loves the following peppermint and chocolate. She asked me if I would make her something with those two ingredients for this Christmas as we always exchange homemade presents v store bought. I made these for her and sent them to her for her early present needless to say that she ate them and asked me when I was sending more. That made my day as she is one of the finest bakers that I know in her own right.
Chocolate Peppermint Wafers

A Brown from GA

These are super easy to make! I love chocolate and peppermint together. These have become one of my favorites!
easy and tasty

c turner from bethlehem, ga

Everyone knows chocolate and peppermint are a great combination, but this recipe is just too simple. My kids loved helping unwrap and break the peppermint candies. Besides a great after meal treat, this would make a wonderful holiday gift for a hostess or in a cute package at each setting for your guests. I love recipes that you can make quickly and ahead of an event. And this one just moved onto the top of my list.
Chocolate peppermint wafers

cindy ryan from TEXAS CITY, TX

This was a very simple recipe to follow, so easy and timeless but great tasting, you don't want people to know just how easy it is to fix. I love mint cookies and this is the next best thing to it except homemade with tlc... thank you!

It's a really fast and easy recipe and looks great. No guest will ever think that it was a simple snack!
