YUMMMM!!! Made these this weekend for fun. Found it online...somewhere, when I was printing out tons of recipes for things like this last weekend. Hope you like them! Ingredients:
cooking spray |
1/4 cup butter or 1/4 cup margarine |
32 creamy chocolate-covered mint candies (such as junior mints, about 3 ounces) |
1 cup all-purpose flour |
1/4 teaspoon baking soda |
1/8 teaspoon salt |
2/3 cup sugar |
1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa |
1 large egg |
1 large egg white |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
2. Coat bottom of an 8 inch square baking pan with cooking spray.
3. Combine butter and mints in a 2 cup glass measure; microwave at HIGH 30 seconds or until soft.
4. Stir until smooth, and set aside.
5. Lightly spoon flour into a dry measuring cup, and level with a knife.
6. Combine flour, soda, and salt in a bowl.
7. Combine sugar, cocoa, egg, and egg white in a large bowl; beat at medium speed of a mixer until well-blended.
8. Add mint mixture; beat well.
9. Add flour mixture; beat at low speed just until blended.
10. Pour batter into prepared pan.
11. Bake at 350 degrees for 20 minutes or until a wooden pick inserted in center comes out clean; cool completely on a wire rack.
12. NOTE: Two large (1. 5 ounce) mints or 6 miniature chocolate-covered peppermint patties (such as York) may be substituted for 32 junior mints.
