This was a recipe recommended by one of our own at ForRent.com. “Junior mints and brownies how can you go wrong? The candy makes them moist and chewy and it’s a special surprise for your guests who just thought they were plain brownies. Bring them to your next family event and I can’t guarantee they’ll let you take on the turkey next year but they might trust you with an apple pie or some Mac n’ Cheese. I give them 2 snaps up!”
Ingredients:
- Cooking spray
- 1/4 cup butter or stick margarine
- 32 (about 3 ounces) creamy, small-size mints in pure chocolate (such as Junior Mints)
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/8 teaspoon salt
- 2/3 cup sugar
- 1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa
- 1 large egg
- 1 large egg white
Preparation:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Coat bottom of an 8-inch square baking pan with cooking spray.
Combine butter and mints in a 2-cup glass measure; microwave at high 30 seconds or until soft. Stir until smooth, and set aside.
Lightly spoon flour into a dry measuring cup, and level with a knife. Combine flour, soda, and salt in a bowl. Combine sugar, cocoa, egg, and egg white in a large bowl; beat at medium speed of a mixer until well-blended. Add mint mixture; beat well. Add flour mixture; beat at low speed just until blended. Pour batter into prepared pan. Bake at 350 degrees for 20 minutes or until a wooden pick inserted in center comes out clean; cool completely on a wire rack.
