Chocolate Mint Fudge Bites

Chocolate and mint are one of my favorite combinations.   Mr. SBQ showed me this recipe in March, as it was in an article about green desserts.  These are good, but a little too complicated to make.  My cookie crust layer was not as thick as the recipe picture (I used regular Oreos).  And then the chocolate layer was not enough to cover the mint layer, which was moving all over the place, so it got a little frustrating.  Once I fought with the chocolate layer to get it to cover the mint enough, I understood why the sprinkles were needed - not a very pretty sight!  I also had to do a little marbling in the thin chocolate areas.  If there is a next time I will let the mint layer set up a little before I add the chocolate layer; and maybe increase the amount of chocolate.  Don't get me wrong, they taste great, they just did not go together as easily as I had hoped.
