Andes Mint Chip Brownies
Posted on 11 January 2011
I suppose there might come a day when I start to get bored with brownies, but until that time I’m just going to keep on with it. They’re fast to make, chocolate, everybody loves them, chocolate, well you get the idea.
When a friend recently decided to have a crafting day at her house I seized the opportunity to get some baking in. If I bake at home for the mr. and I we both end up eating way too much, so I love being able to “share the fat” so to speak. I sent a quick email to be certain she didn’t mind and of course she was delighted.
The night before, when really I should have started something fabulous, I couldn’t think of a thing I wanted to bake. Finally I decided that I would just wait until morning and make the Symphony Brownies because I know those are always well received.
But as luck would have it, that morning on Twitter I saw a tweet that said simply “Back to Basics: Simple Chocolate-Chippy Brownies.” OK, why not try a new recipe?
I loved reading her article about the brownies and she was right – I had all the ingredients in my pantry, including some Andes Mints. They take no time at all to whip up, tasted FANTASTIC and just might be my go-to brownie for a while – they are that good.
Look at that chewy chocolaty goodness! Really – try a pan of these and see what you think. I can’t wait to try them with peanut butter chips, or really even just “plain” chocolate chips.

I didn’t know Andes made chips. Where have I been? This sounds amazing with the added minty chocolate bits. Thanks for linking up on Monday.

I was looking for a new brownie recipe, I found this recipe and tried to make them already. They were delicious, but they didn’t look as good as yours do.

I do find these recipes difficult to cook. I’m not good at these but I’m perfect at eating them when my wife cooks them.

Yes, the Chocolate is always my favorite. I love it so much so I love all snacks relevant with Chocolate.
