Andes mint brownies cut into squares and a bite missing from the corner one.

Andes Mint Brownies

Brooke Homec
These andes mint brownies are a chewy, fudgy brownie with bits of chopped andes mints mixed inside. They're so simple to throw together and taste so delicious and minty.

Ingredients
 

  • ⅔ cup (151.33 g) melted butter cooled
  • 2 cups (400 g) granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs room temp
  • ¼ cup (61 g) milk room temp
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla
  • ½ teaspoon (0.5 teaspoon) salt
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1⅓ cups (186 g) all-purpose flour
  • ½ cup (43 g) cocoa powder
  • 1 cup (170 g) chopped andes mints

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 325 F. Line an 8x8 or 9x13 pan with parchment paper and spray.
  • In a medium mixing bowl, mix melted butter and sugar together. Add eggs, milk and vanilla and mix again until light in color.
  • In a small bowl whisk together dry ingredients, salt, baking powder, flour and cocoa powder. I do this so there aren't clumps of cocoa powder that won't mix well once added to the wet ingredients.
  • Add dry ingredients to wet ingredients and mix again. Fold in andes mints.
  • Spread batter evenly in pan and sprinkle more andes mints on top if you'd like.
  • Bake for about 35-38 minutes in an 8x8, or 25-30 in a 9x13. You want the edges to start to pull away from the sides of the pan and darken, but the middle to still jiggle just slightly. Then allow them to sit and firm up while they cool.

Notes

I have made this recipe Gluten Free before and it turned out great as well. I subbed cup4cup flour and had great results.
You can change out andes mints for chocolate chips or a bit of both if you prefer.
These brownies also freeze so well. I often times will double the recipe and then throw them in the freezer for when I need a quick treat for someone.
I have given both cups and grams as measurements. Grams will be more precise, especially when measuring flour. If you don’t have a kitchen scale, no problem! Just lightly spoon flour into your measuring cup to insure its not packed in there. Light and fluffy is the key.
