Byu Mint Brownies

Wobin's Note:

Anyone who has ever lived in Utah Valley near Brigham Young University has had and loves these brownies. They are made by a bakery called Sugar N Spice in the Cougareat Food Court. They can be found at BYU events and at most any social event in that area because you can purchase them. This recipe is from the BYU website as the official recipe they use.
