Thin mint cookies: if you have real Thin Mint cookies, we suggest those, but you can also use any chocolate mint wafer cookie such as THESE.
Simple Instructions
Top Tips

Small batch Chocolatey Minty Decadent Fudgy Brownies Aluminum loaf pan: Use an aluminum loaf pan instead of a ceramic or glass loaf pan. Parchment paper: we highly encourage you to use parchment paper to make the removal process as easy as possible.
Topping/Serving Ideas
Sea salt: sea salt is always a good idea when making brownies. It’ll help make them extra sweet and chocolatey. Fresh whipped cream: homemade whipped crema is so easy to make and excellent with brownies. Ice cream: when in doubt, serve your brownies with ice cream. We recommend either vanilla or mint chip!
