Fudgy Andes Mint Brownies Recipe
There’s just something about taking that first bite of brownies after they cool completely. The texture is literally perfection at that exact moment in time.

My boys are pretty crazy about brownies so they love to be in the kitchen and help create these as well. It’s a family effort to make them as quick as we can so we can eat them quickly, too!
How do you know when brownies are done baking?
The middle of the brownies should be firm and the edges against the pan should start to pull away a bit. You can also have a toothpick inserted once the pan is done baking to see if it will come out clean.
If it’s clean, they’re done and need to start the cool-down process.

Can you freeze homemade brownies to save for later?
Yes, you can freeze homemade brownies for later! Just make sure that you wrap them well in saran wrap or plastic wrap and then store that in a freezer-safe bag or container.
If you don’t want to freeze them, then once they’re at room temperature cover the prepared pan with aluminum foil and store them on the counter. You’ll have a few days to eat them without worry!
How do you make brownies not cakey and fudgy?
If you’re looking for a delicious batch of brownies that are fudgy, rather than cakey, there are a few key steps to follow when baking.
Firstly, make sure to use the correct ratio of ingredients – too much flour or baking powder can cause the brownies to rise and become cakey.
Secondly, be cautious not to overmix the batter, as this can also lead to a cake-like texture.
Finally, bake the brownies at a slightly lower temperature for a longer amount of time.
This will result in a moist, dense texture, ideal for any chocolate lover.
With these tips in mind, you’re sure to make a batch of brownies that will have everyone coming back for seconds!
Why did my box brownies turn out like cake?
One possible reason could be the amount of liquid used in the recipe. If you add too much liquid, such as water or oil, it can cause the brownies to rise and become more cake-like in texture.
Another factor to consider is the baking temperature and time.
If your oven runs hot or if you leave the brownies in for too long, they may dry out and become more cake-like.
Lastly, be sure to measure your ingredients accurately as using too much flour can also result in a more cake-like texture.
Next time you make brownies, keep these factors in mind to achieve your desired texture.
Is it better to cut brownies warm or cold?
Brownies are a classic dessert that many people enjoy. The question remains, is it better to cut brownies warm or cold?
Cutting warm brownies may seem like the logical choice since they are softer and easier to cut. However, cutting them while they are warm can actually cause the edges to crumble and the brownies to become misshapen.
Cutting cold brownies may be more difficult but it produces a cleaner cut with straight edges.
To cut cold brownies, simply let them cool completely and chill them in the refrigerator for a few hours.
Ultimately, the decision between cutting warm or cold brownies comes down to personal preference and the desired outcome.
