Mint Chocolate Brownies

Have you ever wondered what would happen if you combined a Thin Mint cookie and a brownie? Wonder no more. The answer is right here.

Ingredients

Yields 16 servings

Brownie Layer
  • 1 /2 c. Salted butter
  • 8 oz. semi sweet chocolate chips
  • 1/4 c. Firebee Chocolate Honey
  • 3/4 c. Granulated sugar
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 tsp. Vanilla extract
  • 3/4 c. All purpose flour
  • 1/4 tsp. Salt
Mint Cheesecake Layer
  • 8 oz. cream cheese, softened
  • 1/4 c. Granulated sugar
  • 1 egg yolk
  • 1/4 tsp. Peppermint extract
  • 2 drops liquid or gel green food coloring 
  • 2/3 c. Mini chocolate chips


Instructions

Step 1

Adjust the oven rack to the lowest setting. Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Line an 11" x 7" pan with aluminum foil, leaving an overhang on all sides for easy removal.

Step 2

Make the brownies first. Melt the butter and semi-sweet chocolate in a medium saucepan, stirring constantly. (About 6 minutes on medium heat) Remove from heat and let cool to room temperature. 

Step 3

Stir Firebee Chocolate Honey and sugar into cooled chocolate mixture until combined. Add in eggs one at a time, whisking until smooth after each. Whisk in the vanilla and then gently fold in flour and salt. Pour into prepared pan, reserving 1/4 cup of batter.

Step 4

Make the cheesecake. With a handheld mixer on medium speed, beat the softened cream cheese, 1/4 cup sugar, egg yolk, peppermint extract, and food coloring in a medium bowl until completely smooth. Manually stir in the mini chocolate chips. Drop spoonfuls of the cream cheese mixture onto the brownie batter. Cover with the remaining brownie batter and glide a knife through the layers, creating a swirl pattern. Add extra chocolate chips if desired. 

Step 5

Bake brownies for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out almost clean. Allow them to cool completely before cutting into squares. 

Enjoy!
