Chocolate Covered Thin Mint Fudge Brownies • Paleo, grain-free, gluten-free, dairy-free and soy-free
You must make this recipe if you are craving chocolate, mint, or a delicious sweet treat!
The brownies in this recipe are over the top chocolaty, moist and fudgy. They are made completely free of wheat flour, grains, gluten and dairy like everything else I make and post on this blog. There is no sacrificing taste when substituting real whole food ingredients to make a delectable treat like this one and these brownies are proof of that.
They are made thin (about ¼-inch thickness) and coated in a minty dark chocolate sauce. They are great when eaten cold or as a frozen chocolate treat. My husband loves eating them frozen and describes them as one of the most amazing mint, ice cream-like chocolate frozen treats. These are truly a delicious combination of just the right texture and minty flavor, super smooth, light and refreshing.
Trust me when I say, your family, friends, neighbors (paleo or not), will love them!
