1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
1 cup granulated sugar
3/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips, melted
2 large eggs
2 tablespoons corn syrup
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon mint extract
3 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
1/3 cup bread flour
9 Mint Oreos (or more!)
Chopped mint chocolate (optional)
Heat oven to 350 degrees F. Line an 8x8-inch baking pan with foil; coat foil with cooking spray.
In a large mixing bowl, using a mixer on medium speed, beat together butter, sugar and melted chocolate until well combined. Add eggs; increase mixer speed to high, and beat an additional 2 minutes. Reduce mixer speed to low and beat in corn syrup, salt, baking soda, mint extract and cocoa powder until well combined. Beat in flour until just combined.
Spread 1/3 of the brownie batter into the bottom of prepared pan. Line with Oreos. Cover with remaining batter. Sprinkle chocolate on top. Bake 25 minutes or until well risen, and only slightly wobbly. Cool completely before lifting out foil and slicing into bars. Chill or freeze for easier slicing.
Makes 9 big brownies
Ah, I love these, Emily! I've never had the mint oreo's, but this would be a great way to try them!
ReplyDeleteOmg those look insanely good!
ReplyDeleteI just made Snickers Bar stuffed Choc Chip Cookies and in my comments, I asked people if they'd ever stuffed anything into anything baked goods and one woman said she stuffed Andes mints into things..and then bam, here you did it with Brownies!!!
My mom makes holiday/xmas candy with andes mints.
Your brownies look amazing!
beautiful!!! I love anything mint and chocolate! Love the green popping off the screen from the mint oreo!
ReplyDeleteYum! I love mint in chocolate. Will have to try these. Great photos too!
ReplyDeleteoh my gosh those look awesome, Emily. You amaze me with your creations! You always think of something else!!
ReplyDeleteI say, skip pastry school and just open up your own bakery now!! (Ok, I know that's easier said than done and costs lots of $$, but seriously, it'd be a hit!!!)
Wow they look wonderfuly crisp on top and ooey-gooey in the middle. I love mint choc chip too, it used to be my favourite ice cream.
ReplyDeleteHappy birthday to your sister, its great to have a sister you get on so well with
these look insanely good. i always end up reading baking blogs when i'm dieting... YAY ME.
ReplyDeleteWow this chocolate view!!! It looks delicious! ^^
ReplyDeleteOk, these are amazing. Dangerous and amazing. Just how I like my desserts!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful and tempting as always.
That huge photo is the BEST!! More temptation ;)
ReplyDeleteThese look divine!! We must think alike because I just made a batch of brownies with mint Oreos in them about 2 weeks ago! Mint and chocolate are one of my favorite combos (PB and chocolate are a close second tho..)
ReplyDeleteI love you Em! We ended up freezing these and they are just as wonderful right out of the freezer.
ReplyDeleteMust.make.these.stat.
ReplyDeleteThe PB Oreos would be great, too.
I don't like mint but I can definitely see making these brownies with the double stuffed oreos. YUM!!! Thanks for sharing! And I'm so glad you are happy with your new job!
ReplyDeleteLove these brownies, looks perfect to me... I love mint and chocolate!
ReplyDeleteThid recipe looks delish. I will have to look for the mint Oreos.
ReplyDeleteI am happy to hear you are really settling inpt your new job and love it. It is so great to go to work at a job that you really enjoy, isn't it? I imagine once you start bringing in delicious baked goods, your co-workers will be thrilled.
This is making me think of your Oreo cream cheese brownies (which didn't win the company bake off last year, but they should have!). You know how to combine 'em! Would love to try these now. Send for my next birthday 'cause my name is Rachel too? :-D
ReplyDeleteI remember my ex bf loved mint cc ice cream. I loved it because he loved it. Then we broke up and for a long time I couldn't stomach anything mint-chocolate for a long time. Good thing I got over that.
I live in an apartment full of mint chocolate fanatics, so I know that I'll definitely be making these! Your chocolate cake was a hit by the way! I posted about it yesterday.
ReplyDeleteOh that's it, I'm definitely making these! These maybe need to be featured on one of my posts with a link back to your lovely blog!
ReplyDeleteWow, those look decadent. I love mint-chocolate desserts too, but don't make them so much because they are indeed dangerous to have sitting around!
ReplyDeleteMy husband would loves these! He loves brownies and mint chocolate stuff....and I happen to have some mint Oreo's on hand :).
ReplyDeleteyumm- mint and chocolate are a match made in heaven!
ReplyDeletethese look soooo great!
ReplyDeleteI just made chocolate mint brownies 2 nights ago!! But I made a mint layer in the center from leftover filling I had for homemade peppermint patties. They were seriously rich. Mint- chocolate is so yummy...your brownies look great!
ReplyDeleteThose look fudgey and awesome! I love that mint surprise inside. I haven't tried those oreos, gotta check them out.
ReplyDeleteOh goodness gracious me! I've never even heard of mint Oreo's, fried Oreo's yes, mint, no way!!! I'll be looking for those for sure.
ReplyDeleteIn the mean time, I'll be dreaming about those brownies of yours, sinful but oh so heavenly!!!
Thanks for sharing...
Love your blog, and would love to try these...a couple of questions. I do not usually buy unsalted butter, is salted ok? And not sure if I have bread flour on hand either, so is it ok to use regular??
ReplyDeleteThanks!!!
WOW!! Those look incredible!! At first glance, it looked like you had used the Andes Creme De Menthe Thins that come in the little green foil wrapper. I suppose that would be another variation!
ReplyDeleteSo glad to hear that you love your new job!! I still think you need to be on the Food Network staff in New York, however!!
Oh my, Emily! These look amazing! Love the mint-chocolate combination.
ReplyDeleteCan I just tell you how incredibly excited I am that I found your blog?! Ah I am in heaven. Thanks for sharing all your recipes! Can't wait to try some!
ReplyDeleteThose brownies look delish!! I love chocolate and mint.
ReplyDeleteAh! Super fun & unexpected. I'm really eager to try this recipe out. I love your creativity!

I wish I'd seen these before my daughter's 21st birthday two weeks ago - Mint Oreo is one of her favourite flavours. These are amazing! I think I'll have to make them anyway for another good reason - like it's Tuesday or it's sunny or raining or ...
ReplyDeletei'm loving the cross-section and the very idea of these. excellent brownies, emily!
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh, I just made your cinnamon nutella brownies. SO GOOD! Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh these brownies look incredible. I want ten... ok twenty. The green of the oreo pops in such a fun way too! I will definitely be trying this recipe asap. Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteThanks everyone!
ReplyDeleteAverie, your cookies sound so good!
Mallory, :)
Rachel, I love you too!
Anon, it's so nice! I'm enjoying the change!
Rachel, of course I will!
Anon, I always use unsalted butter. You can use salted, but I would probably cut the amount of salt in the recipe in half. You don't have to use bread flour. I just did because I wanted a chewier brownie. Bread flour has more gluten in it, which equals more chewiness.
Jcarden, I'd like that!
mmmm mint oreos are my FAVE! these would be so good, but so dangerous. :)
ReplyDeleteYum! the flashes of jade look so good!
ReplyDeleteI don't mind the huge picture (of the mint chocolate oreo brownie) one bit!! The bigger the better!
ReplyDeleteMint and chocolate together make me happy--oh how I wish we had these Oreos in France! I just might have to get a special order to come my way...
