- Cover cookie sheets with waxed paper.
- Place one c. of chocolate chips or possibly candy melts in heat-proof measuring c.. A smaller, deeper c. gives best results.
- Microwave chocolate chips or possibly candy melts at 50% power for 1 minute. Remove c. and stir. Continue microwaving at 50% power, stirring every 30 seconds, till chocolate is melted and smooth. Don't over-heat chocolate.
- Add in 5 to 7 drops creme de menthe candy flavoring to each c. of chocolate, and stir thoroughly to mix. To thin chocolate, add in 1 tsp. solid shortening per c. of chocolate chips. Stir gently.
- Dip plastic spoons in melted chocolate to cover the bowl of the spoon. Remove excess chocolate by tapping tip gently against the side of the measuring c..
- If chocolate thickens, return to the microwave for 30 seconds at 50% power, stir gently.
- Repeat with second c. of chocolate chips or possibly candy melts.
- Place 1/4 c. of green candy melts inside a plastic food storage bag. Place bag in heat-proof glass measuring c., and microwave for 30 seconds at 50% power. Use hands to gently mix melts from outside the bag. Continue microwaving till candy melts are completely melted.
- Using scissors, make a tiny snip at a corner of the food storage bag. Gently squeeze ribbons of candy heat out of the bag, moving in a diagonal motion over the bowl of each spoon.
- Cold thoroughly before wrapping individually.
