For me, cinnamon raisin bread makes me think of my Grandma Cail's house, blackberries make me think of camping in California, and mint brownies make me think of BYU.
Well, now that I'm done with school and not passing the creamery every day, I don't have to continue to be tempted by those yummy treats All. The. Time... And since BYU Magazine has published the recipe, I can make them whenever I want and choose to be tempted by yummy brownies. At least this time it's a choice rather than a consequence of buying a gallon of milk. Haha!
I will say, these brownies are super fudgey and delicious but I was surprised by how much sugar and butter was in them. Next time I make mint brownies, I may use a recipe with less butter and sugar (even just a box mix would have less!) but still use their mint icing recipe.
The actual recipe can be found here: https://magazine.byu.edu/article/byu-mint-brownies/
Not only are these brownies super tastey, but it's also a fun way to celebrate my youngest sister finally starting her first college semester at BYU as well as John starting the last semester of his MBA and David starting 1st grade!
I'm pretty excited for all three of them, but for pretty different reasons. David was the most excited for 1st grade so he could have lunch in the lunch room now. And tomorrow he'll get to bring one of these brownies! We'll have to give him his fill now so he'll be immune to them by the time he's old enough to attend BYU. Haha! ;)
