Mint M&M Brownie Cookies

Mint and Chocolate are a combination made in heaven.  With St. Patrick's Day right around the corner, I found my self wanting a quick and easy treat to celebrate the day.  These Mint M&M Brownie Cookies meet all the requirements, and taste YUMMY!

These taste just like a brownie, but in cookie form, and have a pop of mint that offer and unexpected pop of mint in your mouth.

Using a brownie mix, these cookies come together quickly, and are perfect for parties or just a fun after dinner treat.

I made these on the bigger side of my normal cookies, and rather then stirring in the M&Ms, I chose to place them on top of the dough before baking them.  This way, they look pretty, and you get a pop of mint in each bite!

Try these cookies soon, they have the classic brownie taste, with the classic brownie "crackle" top, crunchy on the outside, soft and chewy on the inside...with the wonderful minty chocolate flavor!

*a word of advice...DO NOT OVERBAKE THESE....bake for only 12-13 minutes then pull them from the over, letting them cool for 5 minutes on the cookie sheet before removing them to a cooling rack to cool completely*

Ingredients

• 1 (19.5 oz) Family Size Fudge Brownie Mix
• 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
• 1/4 oil
• 3 tablespoons oil
• 2 eggs
• 1 Package (8 oz) Mint M&Ms

Instructions

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Line baking sheets with silpat, parchment or spay with nonstick cookie spray. In a large mixing bowl combine brownie mix, flour, oil, water and eggs. Gently stir until all are combined, but do not over mix. Drop by rounded tablespoons (I used a large cookie scoop) on to baking sheet, leaving at least 2 inches between cookies. Carefully place M&M on top of unbaked cookies, I used 4-6 per cookie. Bake for 12-13 minutes, resist the urge to bake more! Let cookies cool on baking sheet for 5 minutes, then remove to wire rack to cool completely.
