Girl Scout Cookies Thin Mints

3 10 oz. bags Nestle Mint Chocolate Morsels
6 Tablespoons shortening
108 chocolate wafers

1.  Combine mint chocolate chips with shortening in a large microwave safe glass or ceramic bowl.  Heat on 50% power for 2 minutes, stir (with a plastic or wooden spoon), then heat for an additional minute.  Stir once again, and if chocolate is not a smooth consistency, continue to zap in microwave in 30 second intervals until smooth. 
2.  Use a fork to dip each wafer in the chocolate, tap the fork on the edge of the bowl so that the excess chocolate runs off, and then place the cookies side-by-side on a wax paper lined baking sheet.  Refrigerate until firm. Makes 108 cookies.
