Notes

Expert Tips:
  • It's really important to freeze the mint Aero bubbles for at least an hour before making the recipe, to ensure they don't completely melt and lose shape when baked. The mint Aero bubbles for the top do not need to be frozen.
  • Grease and line the baking tin to prevent the brownies from sticking.
 
Variations:
  • Add crushed candy canes to the topping for a more festive mint chocolate brownie.
  • Add chopped nuts for crunch. Pecan nuts are nice.
  • Stir through dried cranberries or raisins.
  • Use other mint chocolate! After Eight mints work well in a layer.
 
Storage:
Store: The brownies will keep in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
Freeze: Place the brownies in a freezer-safe container and freeze for up to 3 months.
