Ingredients
  • 1 1/4 cup Flour; unbleached
  • 1/2 teaspoon Baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon Salt
  • 1 cup Sugar
  • 1/2 cup Butter
  • 3 tablespoon water
  • 1 1/2 cup Mint-chocolate chips
  • 1 1/2 teaspoon Vanilla extract
  • 3 Eggs; large

Directions
  1. 1
    Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
  2. 2
    Line a 9x13-inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on the sides for easy removal, and lightly grease the parchment.
  3. 3
    In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
  4. 4
    In a large heat-proof bowl or microwave-safe container, melt the butter. Stir in the sugar and water until combined.
  5. 5
    Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition until the mixture is smooth and slightly thickened.
  6. 6
    Stir in the vanilla extract.
  7. 7
    Gently fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined. Do not overmix.
  8. 8
    Fold in the mint-chocolate chips and chopped nuts until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
  9. 9
    Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it out evenly with a spatula.
  10. 10
    Bake for 30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs attached but no wet batter.
  11. 11
    Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan on a wire rack before lifting them out by the parchment overhang and cutting into squares.

Note

Walnut halves are optional for garnish or added crunch inside the batter.

For the best flavor, use high-quality mint-chocolate chips. A standard 10-oz bag is typically required.

Store brownies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days, or freeze for longer storage.

If you do not have mint-chocolate chips, you can substitute with regular semi-sweet chocolate chips and add a drop of peppermint extract to the batter.
