Ingredients

3/4 cup unsalted butter - melted
4 oz. bittersweet chocolate chips
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar
3 large eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
4 oz. Andes mints

Instructions

Prep. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Prepare an 8×8 pan by placing parchment paper in pan so that it hangs over the edges by a few inches.
Melt butter and chocolate. In a saucepan over low heat, melt the butter and chocolate together until creamy. Let cool slightly.
3/4 cup unsalted butter, 4 oz. bittersweet chocolate chips
Add remaining wet ingredients. Transfer the chocolate mixture to a mixing bowl, and add the sugars. Mix well. Then add the beaten eggs and vanilla and mix again.
1/2 cup granulated sugar, 1/2 cup brown sugar, 3 large eggs, 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
Add dry ingredients. To the mixing bowl, add the flour, cocoa powder, salt, and 3/4 of the Andes mints. Mix again.
3/4 cup all-purpose flour, 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder, 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt, 4 oz. Andes mints
Prepare mints. Slice the Andes mints in half and set aside.
Assemble brownies. Use a spoon to add 1/2 of the brownie batter into the prepared pan, smoothing gently to all sides of the pan. Add about half of the Andes mints to the top of the brownie batter and spoon the rest of the batter overtop. Then add the remaining mints to the top of the remaining batter.
Bake. Bake the brownies for approximately 28 - 32 minutes at 350 degrees, or until done to your liking.
Cool slightly. Remove the brownies from the oven and let sit in the pan for about 20-30 minutes. Transfer the brownies to a cooling rack, using the parchment paper to carefully lift them out of the pan.

Notes

- Store mint brownies in an airtight container for 3-4 days.
- To freeze brownies, wrap them tightly in cling wrap and then place in a freezer bag. These freeze well for 3-4 months.
