Instructions

  • Prepare a square 8x8 baking pan with parchment paper and set it aside. Preheat the oven to 350 F/180 C.
  • In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the sugar, brown sugar, eggs, egg yolk, and vanilla until light and fluffy, about 1-2 minutes.
  • In a small pot, melt the butter over low heat. Add the chocolate chips and stir until smooth.
  • Stream the hot melted butter and chocolate mixture into the egg and sugar bowl, whisking until just combined.
  • Fold in the flour, cocoa powder, espresso, and salt until almost combined and some flour streaks remain.
  • Add in the chopped andes mints and continue folding until just combined.
  • Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan.
  • Bake for 20-25 minutes or until the top is shiny, the edges are cracked, and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out smeared in chocolate.
  • Let the pan cool completely on a wire rack, then remove it from the pan.
  • Drizzle the top with chocolate and sprinkle with more chopped andes mints and enjoy!

recipe notes
  • You can also sprinkle the tops with Andes mints before baking instead of topping them after it bakes!
  • Use a kitchen scale. Baking with a scale is much more accurate than cup measurements and is highly recommended.
  • Don't overbake. These brownies are gooey and fudgy if baked correctly. Baking them for too long will result in a dryer brownie.
  • Substitute boxed brownie mix. In a pinch? You can definitely add the chopped mints to a box of store-bought brownie mix!
 
storage and freezing
  • Room temperature: Store the cooled mint brownies in an airtight container at room temperature for 3-4 days.
  • Freezer: Store them in an airtight container or freezer bag for up to one month in the freezer.
