(here's the melon baller i have. the jagged edge end works so well with this project). i was going to try chocolate and white chocolate, but ended up only using the chocolate. play around, have fun.
put the chocolate chips into a microwave safe bowl and melt in the microwave. start in small increments because each microwave varies. you do NOT want to burn your chips

stick your mint leaves into the chocolate and put in the freezer or refrigerator until the chocolate has set
