ERIKA'S "FRANGO" MINTS
This recipe was passed on to my mom from her dear friend Erika Brooks who was an amazing cook, baker, and cake decorator in 1984. This recipe is based on the famous Frango® candy that was sold at the Bon Marche in Seattle, WA. I have substituted other extracts for different flavors. If I want a pretty look, I pipe the chocolate into small candy papers with a pastry tip. The result is a soft smooth chocolate candy.

FRANGO MINT PIES
My mom gave me this recipe, which she got from my aunt who lives in Seattle. I guess Frango Mints are popular treats in the Northwest. They are called pies even though you make them using muffin tins. This dessert is one of my absolute favorites. As an option you can top each "pie" with vanilla wafer crumbs. We have never made them this way, but that is what the original recipe suggests as an option. They can be made ahead of time and last quite awhile in the freezer. Cook time includes freeze time.

COPYCAT FANTASTIC CHOCOLATE MINT FRANGOS
Mmmmm! These Frangos will melt in your mouth! They are so easy to make and also make great gifts. After cutting the Frangos into small pieces, I individually wrap each piece in pretty cellophane paper, and then place all pieces in either a cool coffee mug, a pretty box, or a lovely bag. I then take a colorful recipe card and write out the recipe to include with the gift because people always ask me for it once they have tasted these! Please note that the prep time does not include chill time.
