Easy Mini Minty Brownies

Yum
Chocolate and mint are among the flavors I am craving this month.
Well, as far as chocolate goes, I crave it ALL the time!
But this time of year, chocolate and mint are the perfect combo!!!
Check out these yummy, little treats...


Wouldn't Easy Mini Minty Brownies be just perfect for St. Patrick's Day?
They are super easy because they start with a brownie box mix.  The mint flavor comes from Jr. Mints!  There is one right in the middle of the brownies!


Aren't they cute?
A chocolate and mint dessert in a mini bite!



I use a brownie box mix because it makes this recipe super easy and I haven't really come across a home-made version as good as the box.  Check out what else you need...

Ingredients for mini brownies:
1 brownie mix
(ingredients required on box mix may vary from box to box but is typically 2 eggs, 1/4 cup water, 3/4 cup vegetable oil)
2 boxes Jr. Mints
non-stick cooking spray
Ingredients for buttercream icing:
1/2 cup butter, softened
1 cup powdered sugar
1 Tbsp milk
3 drops green food coloring
white sprinkles
Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.  Follow brownie package directions.  Spray mini muffin pan with non-stick spray.  Fill each cup halfway with brownie batter.  Cook for 15-18 minutes at 350 degrees.  Remove pan from the oven and press 1 Jr Mint into the center of each cooked brownie.  Let sit for 20 minutes before removing the mini brownie from the pan otherwise it is a goopy mess.  While the brownies cool, make the icing.  Mix together softened butter and powdered sugar.  Add the 1 Tbsp milk and 3 drops of green food coloring.  Frost the brownies.  Add white sprinkles and an additional Jr. Mint.


 An explosion of chocolate and mint!
Take nibbles and make it last or just pop the WHOLE thing in your mouth!

  1. Thanks to Doctor Razor for the Great miraculous work he did in my life with his herbal remedy. I have been living with this virus and I have shared with my partners my situation because they deserve to have a choice of whether they want to change being with me or not. I unfortunately did not have a choice in this matter leaving me vulnerable and now faced with this virus for the rest of my life or until a cure was discovered.I refused to take the Medical drugs my PCD had told me to take, I surrendered to my fate, because I was careless. On Aug 23, 2020, I came across Doctor Razor herbal medicine. I browsed about the authenticity of This Doctor, I got to see several Testimonies regarding his works from people he had helped with his medicine. I reached out to him and told him my problems, after we spoke he promised to help me out. I started using his herbal medicine which he sent to me Via the Courier Delivery, and asked me to take the herbal medicine for 18 days. which i did. I am delighted to let you all know that I Got cured of Herpes Virus, after the Medical Doctor had confirmed this with the test results, when I went for a medical check up after completing the Herbal Dosage Of 18 days.

  2. I finally was able to conceive a child of my own the year 2020 after 7 years without any issue. this really was the worst thing ever. It was a miracle that indeed shocked me because i was left with no option but to use a Herbal Health Concoction that was prepared from Herbs to help the Immune. I got to find out about this from someone, and i talked to the direct source about my problem. He`s name is Priest Babaka and He told me how some necessary few herbs will be useful as to women`s health and recovery and He had to do what He knows best. He sent the Herbs to me and gave instruction on method of use. this all happened and i really have been able to say i`m glad God did this.

    You can get in-touch with Priest Babaka via Email: babaka.wolf@gmail.com Or Facebook at priest.babaka
    Really just felt like dropping this.
