Pistachio and Mint Brownies Recipe

These Pistachio and Mint Brownies are a tasty twist on traditional chocolate brownies. The chopped pistachios add a crunchy texture to the brownies, and the fresh mint leaves add a refreshing flavor.

Ingredients

Four large eggs
1/2 cup chopped pistachios
1 cup unsalted butter (2 sticks)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 1/4 cups granulated sugar
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons chopped fresh mint leaves
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon ground cardamom
1 1/4 cups cocoa powder

Time Needed

Prep Time: 20 minutes
Cook Time: 30 minutes
Total Time: 50 minutes

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
Coat a 9x13-inch baking pan with nonstick cooking spray.
Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over low heat.
Stir in the sugar, cocoa powder, and salt until smooth.
Remove from the heat and add the vanilla extract.
One at a time, add the eggs, stirring well after each addition.
In a small mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, and cardamom.
Stir in the flour mixture until just combined with the chocolate mixture.
Fold in the pistachios and mint leaves, if using.
Smooth the top of the batter into the prepared pan.
Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the centre reveals only a few moist crumbs.
Allow the brownies to cool completely before cutting into squares.
