Love buffalo wings? Get that same hot, zippy flavor in everything from deviled eggs to enchiladas. And of course: wings.

Another fun holiday garnish idea! Simply melt chocolate and spread on fresh mint leaves. Once the chocolate sets you can remove the mint and they are ready to use.

ingredients
1 ounce semisweet chocolate
12 large fresh mint leaves
directions
Melt the chocolate. Smooth the chocolate onto the face of the mint leaves with a flat knife or spatula. Place the leaves onto wax paper with the green side down, and into the refrigerator.
When the chocolate has hardened, carefully peel the leaf off the chocolate mint and discard the mint leaves. Refrigerate the chocolate leaves until serving time.

Love the spinach dip at restaurants like TGIFriday's and the Olive Garden? Make it at home with these easy-to-follow copycat recipes.
Ah, the unassuming envelope of onion soup mix. It's more than just for onion soup (or dip). It adds tremendous flavor (and convenience) in all these recipes.

A couple of tips: use leaves with really defined (jagged) edges for the best look. Larger leaves work better but the smaller leaves are more often better shaped. Don't let any of the chocolate get on the underside of the leaf or it may tear when you remove it. The chocolate, once set, will melt if you handle it too much so work quickly when removing the leaves. The chocolate will retain a slight mint flavor but it's very mild (I was hoping they'd be more minty!). This was a fun project!
