Perfect for St. Patrick's Day, and it feeds an army. She says they get moister if they are left in the refrigerator for a day or two before serving if you can leave them alone that long. They are very rich but delicious. I couldn't find mint chocolate chips so I used Andes Mints instead. I also found it needed a little more cooking time, but that may vary by altitude and your stove. Thank you Helen for the great recipe.
