Mint and chocolate. Is there any better combination? By themselves they are pretty good, but when combined, these two titans of taste pack a mouth-watering, taste-bud tantalizing, stomach craving experience that very few can pass by.
It’s as if mint and chocolate have always been destined for each other, and really, who am I to get in the way of destiny? Using our amazing, versatile, and very scrumptious brownie mix, and with a little help from our impressive Baker’s Cocoa, I’ve created a delightful dessert that fuses these two flavors together in a way that will leave your mouth exuberant with every bite! And really, isn’t that the point of desserts? Grab your hand mixer, it’s time to whip up some Chocolate Mint Brownies!
Ingredients (Brownies):
1 pack Honeyville Fudge Brownie Mix
2 Eggs
1/4 cup Water
1/3 cup Vegetable Oil
Mint Filling:
1/2 cup Butter, softened
2 cups Powdered Sugar
1 Tbsp Water
1/2 tsp Mint Extract (I used Peppermint)
3 drops Green Food Coloring
Chocolate Frosting:
1/2 cup Butter, softened
2/3 cup Honeyville Baker’s Cocoa
3 cups Powdered Sugar
1/3 cup Milk
1 tsp Vanilla
Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
In a large bowl, mix together brownie mix, eggs, water, and vegetable oil, until batter is smooth.
In your USA Pan Square Cake Pan, pour batter evenly.
Bake at 350 degrees for 35 minutes. Remove and allow to cool completely before taking next step.
In a medium bowl, using your electric hand mixer, mix together butter, powdered sugar, water, mint extract, and green food coloring. Mix until frosting is smooth and ingredients are evenly distributed.
Using a spatula, spread mint filling evenly over the top of the brownies, then place in the freezer for 30 minutes.
Once brownies have chilled, make your chocolate frosting by mixing butter, baker’s cocoa, powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla together in a medium bowl with your electric hand mixer. Using a spatula, spread frosting evenly over the top of the brownies. Slice brownies, and serve!
