Mint and chocolate chip lovers—these are the brownies for you. Everyone knows that Andes are the ultimate mint-chocolate chip candy, so we decided that we just had to make brownies inspired by our favorite bite-sized treat. We start with a fudgy brownie base (made from a box!), then top with Andes mints, then a dyed green frosting with mini chocolate chips. Top with even more Andes mints, and you've got the perfect chocolatey, minty treat to enjoy on St. Patrick's Day and beyond!
We use a box brownie mix for ease in this recipe, but if you're looking to go above and beyond (or simply want unbeatable brownies), start with our homemade brownies recipe instead.
