  • subheading: About this recipe:
  • One bowl recipe: these are simple, fudgy brownies and you only need a large bowl, a spatula, and a brownie pan to make them.
  • Easy to make: most mint brownies involve a chocolate layer and a mint filling or mint layer, then a chocolate glaze on top, more like grasshopper brownies. Well, these are a quicker version, a simple recipe that will enable you to whip them up at a moment's notice.
  • Great flavor: a recipe for chocolate lovers for sure. Both the chocolate and mint flavors come through in just the right amount.
  • Can be frozen: besides keeping well for a few days at room temperature or in the refrigerator, these mint chocolate brownies are great to freeze for a month, and can be eaten almost directly from the freezer if the craving hits!
  • Holiday dessert: the combination of mint and chocolate is perfect for several holidays such a Christmas, st. patrick’s day, and valentine’s day.
  • Mostly pantry staples as is the case with most brownie recipes, except for the mint of course.
  •  
  • Mint: it's the star of the show and my first choice is to use peppermint extract such as Simply Organic peppermint flavor or Frontier Natural peppermint extract.
  • I tried using chopped fresh mint, but the flavor is just not there.
  • Another alternative would be using creme the menthe extract, or adding mint chips (my favorites by far are Guittard Green mint baking chips), or chunks such as Andes creme de menthe baking chips which we should rename Andes mints brownies lol.
  • Semisweet chocolate: the brownie mix includes melted chocolate and I like to use dark chocolate. Use your favorite brand. I usually go with Ghirardelli Premium baking bar, Ghirardelli Intense dark bar or Callebaut dark baking callets.
