These are my grandmother’s, out of this world, mint sticks (okay or mint brownies). I refuse to eat any other mint brownies because they just aren’t good enough.

You guys. My grandma ruined me. I can never enjoy mint brownies because they never compare to her mint sticks. These are so good and SO addicting, I’m giving you fair warning. My mom would make these all the time growing up and I have never tasted another mint brownie like it. Whatever combination of mint, chocolate, sugar etc. my grandma used to create this recipe is better than anything else you will ever taste. So give my grandma some love and whip up a batch of these. Oh my goodness I’m drooling just writing this post!
