A few weeks ago my 12 year old granddaughter spent the weekend with us. The Princess loves to bake and used to take monthly classes at a nearby bakery. The classes have been on hiatus over the course of the pandemic and she has been missing them. I think its great for children to learn how to cook and bake at a young age!

Our grocery store was running a sale on the Betty Crocker Delights Mint Chip Brownie Mix for .50 cents a box! Yes, fifty-cents so I grabbed two of them on my shopping trip. The Princess saw them sitting in my pantry and wanted to make one. You only need to add 3 ingredients (egg, vegetable oil and water).
She sprayed my 9″ by 9″ square stoneware baking pan with non-stick spray. She poured the brownie mix into the mixing bowl and added the three called-for ingredients. She used the electric hand mixer on low speed to mix everything up (about 40 seconds) and then poured the batter into the baking pan.
Bake in a preheated 350 degree oven for about 20-25 minutes and they were done! She removed them and left them cool. The box included a little packet of mint chocolate chips. You add a little bit of vegetable oil in a measuring cup along with those mint chocolate chips. Microwave until melted and smooth. You drizzle that over-the-top of the cooled brownies.
They turned out fantastic! She did a really nice job making them. We love brownies and I would say that they have more of a fudgy consistency to them. They weren’t all dried out and cake-like. Nice and moist. They were packed with flavor. Reminded me of mint chocolate chip ice cream or those Andes Chocolate Mints. Delicious!!! They didn’t last long in our house!

What a great sale for this mix! These brownies would have been eaten right away here too.
I like mint and chocolate anything. My favorite ice cream is mint chocolate chip. These brownies would be yummy.
My kids love to bake too. They are slowly learning. I love mint so I’ll have to check these out.
I am going to buy this mix next time I go to the store. Your granddaughter did a good job with them as they look so delicious.
We get the regular fudge brownie mix all the time. It makes wonderful brownies. Good price on the box.
They wouldn’t last long here either. They look and sound really good.
