Thick, fudgy Mint Chocolate Chip Brownies are loaded with tons of mint chocolate chips, they make the perfect dessert to satisfy your chocolate cravings!
Can you believe St. Patrick’s Day is coming in a couple of weeks!? I’ve never really been a big fan of wearing green to avoid getting pinched, I’ve always found it really annoying. But holiday food is one tradition I can get behind! Move over lucky charm style rice crispy treats, I just want all the brownies.
I know what you’re thinking – brownies again!?! I know, I know… well my mom came to visit Monday and she requested brownies; since I aim to please, I decided we had to make some. My mom loves anything with mint and chocolate and just happened to have brought some mint chocolate chips along with her – hint, hint huh?
I went with my go to brownie recipe and added in the chips, it was only a small tweak, but a noticeable difference. Mom got a little chip happy and dumped in 3/4 of the bag, so these brownies turned out extra fudgy, which in my opinion is always a good thing. So grab a glass of milk and snuggle up with one (or two) of these delicious, chocolatey squares; enjoy and happy baking!
