Mint Chocolate Truffles
Ingredients
  • cooking spray
  • 1 (18.4 ounce) package brownie mix
  • 2/3 cup vegetable oil
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 (4.6 ounce) package creme de menthe thins (such as Andes®)
  • 1 (12 ounce) bag semisweet chocolate chips
  • 1 tablespoon coconut oil
  • green and while candy sprinkles (optional)
Instructions
1
Begin by preheating your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit, or 175 degrees Celsius. Next, take a glass 9x13-inch pan and spray it with cooking spray to prevent sticking.
2
To make the brownies, combine the contents of a box mix with oil, water, and eggs in a large bowl. Using a spoon, stir the mixture 50 times to ensure it's well combined.
3
Pour the brownie mix into the prepared pan and bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, typically taking 28 to 31 minutes.
4
Once done baking, remove the brownies from the oven and let them cool slightly for about 10 minutes.
5
To make the mint brownie bites, break up the warm brownies into a large bowl. Then, roughly chop some mint candies and add them to the bowl.
6
Mix the brownies with the chopped mint until well combined, allowing the chocolate in the brownies to slightly melt.
7
Form the mixture into 1 1/2-inch balls by pressing them firmly together. Place these balls in the refrigerator to chill for 20 minutes.
8
Meanwhile, melt some chocolate chips and oil in a small microwave-safe bowl. Heat the mixture in 30-second intervals, stirring after each one, until it's smooth and melted.
9
Dip each brownie ball into the melted chocolate and use a fork to coat them evenly. Lift the dipped truffles and allow any excess chocolate to drip off.
10
Place the dipped truffles onto a tray lined with waxed or parchment paper. If desired, top them with sprinkles.
11
Refrigerate the truffles for 5 minutes, or let them sit at room temperature for 20 minutes, until the chocolate has set.
