Chocolate Mint Brownies

Ok. Confession time. I love chocolate. All kinds of chocolate. But hey, since we’ve been friends for a while, you probably already know that.

When I was in college, a girl in the apartment upstairs used to make mint brownies whenever we got a little homesick.

It’s no wonder why these delicious treats are synonymous with comfort to my little heart.

Like I mentioned earlier this week, we’ve got dye restrictions at our house. So our mint brownies are still amazing.

Like, uh-MAZE-ing. But they are dye free! The absence of green dye doesn’t make them any less delicious.

The brownie is rich and dense, yet still moist and fluffy. I don’t know, but it could be the cup of Hershey’s chocolate syrup! Or it could be the 3 sticks of butter. I dunno.

The thick layer of chocolate layered on top of creamy mint. Oh my heavens. Seriously, you’ll be in heaven.

You can bake up a pan to share with friends or just curl up with Netflix and a fork. And a glass of milk. You don’t want to forget that.
