MINT JULEP BROWNIES



Mint Julep Brownies image

From Coastal Living. We love the Chocolate Bourbon Brownies With Double Frosting (#92550) I have listed, and here's another using bourbon, with the added attraction of mint. Edited to add: I just made these, and I would encourage anyone trying these to use a smaller pan (8x8 or 9x9) because these do come out pretty thin! I used a bit less sugar and a little more of both the bourbon and peppermint extracts.

CHOCOLATE MINT BROWNIES

One of the best things about this recipe is that these mint chocolate brownies get moister if you leave them in the refrigerator for a day or two. The problem at our house is that no one can leave them alone for that long! -Helen Baines, Elkton, Maryland
