A rich chocolate brownie loaded with Andes® Crème De Menthe pieces, topped with fluffy green buttercream and more chocolate — Crumbl went full mint-chocolate overload for St. Patrick's Day week and it's absolutely unhinged in the best way. Fudgy, minty, and dangerously rich.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line two large baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a stand mixer, cream together 1 stick unsalted butter, 2 oz cream cheese, granulated sugar, and brown sugar for 2-3 minutes until fluffy. (The cream cheese creates the signature Crumbl soft, fudgy center.)
Add eggs, one at a time, then vanilla extract, beating until smooth. Scrape bowl and mix in.
In a separate bowl, whisk flour, cocoa, cornstarch, baking powder, and salt. Add dry ingredients to wet in two parts; mix just until no streaks remain.
Fold in chopped Andes® candies gently. Scoop dough into 9 large mounds (about ¼ cup/4.5 oz each) and shape into thick rounds, 4–5 inches wide. Place on trays spaced apart.
Chill shaped dough balls for 1 hour; this ensures maximum thickness, replicating Crumbl’s dense, tall brownie cookie.
Bake for 12–14 minutes, rotating halfway, until edges are set but centers look slightly underbaked. Remove and let cool completely on trays—the cookies will firm up as they cool.
For the mint buttercream: Beat 0.5 stick room-temp butter until soft. Mix in powdered sugar, cream, mint extract, and green gel coloring until light and fluffy. Pipe or spread tall, swirled mounds atop cooled cookies.
Drizzle each cookie generously with melted chocolate or hot fudge, and sprinkle with more chopped Andes® candies. Serve at room temp for ultimate softness.
