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

Steps:
- Heat the cream in a medium saucepot over low heat. Smack the mint between your hands to help release the oils; add the mint to the cream. Bring to a simmer, then remove from the heat, cover and let steep for 30 minutes.
- Heat the cream back to a simmer. Place the bittersweet and semisweet chocolate chips in a large bowl and strain the hot mint cream over the chocolate. Let sit for 2 minutes to let the chocolate melt. Add the salt and whisk until the chocolate is completely melted and blended into the cream. Pour into a baking dish. Cover and refrigerate until chilled and set, 2 hours.
- Using a small round scoop, melon baller or tablespoon measure, scoop out tablespoon-size balls of the chilled chocolate and place on a baking sheet. You'll need some rubber gloves for the next part. Roll each ball in your hands so that it is uniform and smooth, then place back on the baking sheet.
- Place the crushed cookies, chopped nuts and chopped semisweet chocolate in 3 separate dishes. Roll each chocolate ball in one of the coatings, making sure it is completely covered. Place on a baking sheet, cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes. Remove from the refrigerator about 20 minutes before serving.
Tips:
- Use high-quality chocolate. This will make a big difference in the flavor of your brownies.
- Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing will make the brownies tough.
- Bake the brownies until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs attached. Overbaking will make the brownies dry.
- Let the brownies cool completely before cutting them. This will help them to hold their shape.
- Store the brownies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. You can also freeze the brownies for up to 2 months.
