Take a peek at what our pals over at 12Tomatoes had to say about this amazing minty brownie dessert recipe:

“If your favorite Girl Scout cookie is the Thin Mint, we’re with you! While those only come around a few weeks out of every year, you can make these cool, refreshing chocolate mint brownies any time you want to give yourself or your family a welcome treat. The three layers of this luscious brownie sandwich the tangy mint in between two layers of delectable chocolate — creating a dessert that’s truly satisfying. Bake up a batch the next time you need to bring something to a potluck, and don’t be surprised when you take home a completely empty plate.”

When the weather is cold, and Christmas is nearing, I make these brownies up and place them in decorative tins to give away as gifts. My family and friends love them. It’s very hard not to keep a few for myself, though!
