My kids love holiday traditions and these Chocolate Mint Brownies are my daughter, Kelly’s, favorite Christmas dessert. In fact, she just mentioned that it is almost time to make a holiday batch!
This recipe goes back probably 30 years. My childhood friend, Melissa, shared this with me. Melissa is quite the baker! So, thank you again, Melissa, for introducing this recipe to our family. The recipe is below and a printable is available here.
