Fudgy brownies made with layers of rich chocolate, creamy mint frosting, and an easy bakery-style ganache topping!

Minty Magic with a Box Mix!

I am still laughing over something our son said to my husband the other day! He said, “Dad, on this episode of Mom exposed, I caught Mom listening to Country music.” When we are in the car together as a family we listen to Christian music. But when I am by myself in the car, sometimes I rock it out and turn it up! I had forgotten to change the station before I turned the car off and was busted.

We had fun with it and I cranked it up! I am pretty sure my son was in a state of shock.

Please tell me I am not the only one that tries to be a good influence in front of their kids, but reverts back to their pre-parenting days and lets their hair down when no one is around?!

Speaking of getting busted, I am pretty sure you’ll get busted eating this entire pan of Mint Brownies after the first bite! The Oreo pieces in the brownie batter combined with the perfect amount of creamy, minty filling and topping with a decadent chocolate ganache will leave you feeling like you’ve had a bite of heaven!

If you like brownies as much as I do, then make sure to try Cake Mix Caramel Brownies, Cheesecake Brownies, S’mores Brownie Bars, Zucchini Brownies, or Buckeye Brownies with Brownie Mix, too!

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS:

What Kind of Brownie Box Mix Works Best?

A fudgy brownie mix works best for mint brownies. It gives you soft centers and chewy edges that pair perfectly with the cool mint flavor. Cakey mixes will work too, but the texture will be lighter.

How Do I Store Brownies?

Store them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. Chilling them can actually make the mint flavor even better.

Can I Freeze Mint Brownies?

Yes! Store them in a freezer safe container for up to 3 months.
