Mint lovers will absolutely love these Mint Mississippi Mud Brownies. Yummers! Mint and Chocolate lovers need to try this recipe!
My wife loves mint. She also loves chocolate. So making these Mint Mississippi Mud Brownies for her was a no-brainer. I needed the brownie points (pun intended).
Basically, if you love Brownies and mint-flavored desserts, then you must give this recipe a try.
Unlike your typical chocolate brownies, these have a wonderfully minty filling in them. I’m not a huge fan of minty-flavored stuff, but these brownies are delicious.
The last time I made these brownies and brought them to a party they were gone within minutes.
One of the interesting things about these Mississippi Mud Brownies is that they use Marshmallow Cream as one of their ingredients for the filling. If you love marshmallow brownies then you will love these brownies!

Can I use gluten free flour in the brownie mix ?
I see no reason why you can’t use Gluten Free Baking Flour. I sometimes do this depending on who I am serving. Depending on the brand of flour you are using, you might have to adjust the amount of flour if it’s not a 1:1 ratio.
