I saw these on Pinterest before Christmas and immediately pinned it. Don’t they look yummy? I just love, love, love those pastel mints. I have only seen them at the Pepperidge Farm stores but my co-worker tells me they are available in the store. But I’ve never seen them =o(
They were delicious! I mean seriously – how can you go wrong with chocolate and mint, right? And perfect for Easter (I thought.)
