But, I had everything in my pantry except the mint extract. So I decided to whip up a couple batches and surprise my kids with them when they got home from school. I scored huge Mommy Points! I need to buy some mint extract for the next time. ;) Thank you Chef John for this amazingly simple and yummy recipe. ♡Heatherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09157055375607648281noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7173052990851751381.post-24388277199226207242018-06-21T17:47:22.684-04:002018-06-21T17:47:22.684-04:00You can also stir 3 ounces of chopped chocolate (I...You can also stir 3 ounces of chopped chocolate (I used dark) when melting the butter.

Also I have found that for those who do not like minty brownies, instead flavor the icing with orange extract, almond extract, or anything else creative... I bet raspberry would be good too. Seriously I've tinkered with this recipe so many times and in so many ways and it's amazing every time. This is a great one Thanks for your videos.

While I was going to just make the icing vanilla, I thought about the cream cheese in the fridge that needed to be used. So I swirled some homemade cheesecake mix into it, and they worked out beautifully as cheesecake fudge brownies... and were quickly eaten by the family. Next time I'll try them 'as is.'<br />Thanks, Chef John! <3Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15901879339062823334noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7173052990851751381.post-14162675020525335332014-11-11T05:04:16.165-05:002014-11-11T05:04:16.165-05:00Man, I just made this and boy did I choke.
