We love brownies, and we decided to add some of our favourite chocolate too to make Mint aero brownies.
We really fancied brownies in the van, without an oven we thought that chocolate goodness may be out of our reach. However, we have seen lots of different things being made in a sandwich toaster recently. So thought we would give brownies a shot. Deciding which chocolate to add was a tricky one and so we decided on mint aero brownies. These can be made with any type of chocolate and we have since made these brownies with mars bars & terry’s chocolate orange. Which one would you try?
Delicious! When cooking in a sandwich toaster, the ones without ridges are best, such as the ridgemonkey. This recipe would need to be doubled if making in a conventional oven.
