The dark chocolate brings out the mint flavor better

Because Dark Chocolate has the least fat and milk solids in it so it is not overwhelmed by the milky creamy flaovar as to what milk and "white" cholocate does. I has so much of a strong flavor on its own that when put with the mint, the mint actually dulls the dark chocolate creating an equallity of both flavors making them both tastefull at the same time. Instead of one flavor overpowering the other.

Dark chocolate complements the strong flavour of the mint

To enhance the MINT flavor. If they used milk chocolate then the taste buds on your tongue would be distracted!!! It is a bitter-sweet combination that works somehow.

Cause the flavors compliment each other so darn well. It's not the same with milk chocolate cause milk chocolate is too sweet
