Spiked Thin Mint Brownie Bites

Mar 13, 2013

Remember that time we made spiked frosting? Well, we’ve done it again and this time it’s minty and happens to be on top of Thin Mint brownies. That’s right. Spiked frosting and Thin Mint brownies, together at long last!

Ingredients:
– 1 box of brownie mix

– 3 eggs, 1/4 cup water, 3/4 cup oil (or whatever your box of brownie mix tells you!)

– 1 tube of Thin Mints

– 1 tub of cream cheese frosting

– 4-6 oz creme de menthe

– 1/4 cup powdered sugar

– green sprinkles

Tools:
– mini muffin pan

Never thought you’d see Thin Mints, creme de menthe, and cream cheese frosting in one recipe? It’s time to get cooking! Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F.

First, the cookies. Place about 8 cookies in a ziploc bag and use a hammer or rolling pin to crush ’em up. You should end up with 1 cup of crumbs. If you have extra, save them for sprinkling later.

To mix your batter, mix as directed but add an extra egg for a cakier texture. And, of course, add in those Thin Mints crumbs!

Spoon your brownie batter into a mini muffin pan so that each muffin cavity is filled to the top. Your brownies will rise a bit creating a perfect little dome for dipping in frosting. Bake for 25-30 minutes. Speaking of frosting, time to spike it!

In a mixing bowl, combine frosting, 4-6 ounces of creme de menthe, and 1/4 cup of powdered sugar. We recommend pouring the creme de menthe in one shot at a time to make sure your frosting doesn’t become too runny. No matter what, your frosting will be closer to icing in texture, and less thick than regular frosting.

Take your brownie bites out of the oven and let cool for 5-10 minutes.

To frost, dunk the top of your brownie in the frosting. Top with green sprinkles and extra Thin Mints crumbs if you have them.

And that’s it! YUM! Minty, chocolatey, and a little bit tipsy :)

Girl Scout cookie season is finally here! It’s a holiday in its own right – after all, all of the cookie flavors are to die for!

We just really can’t go a single year without snagging a few boxes of Thin Mints, Samoas, and Trefoils. If you, like us, now have a strong hankering for some good ol’ Girl Scout cookies, here’s everything you can expect from the 2024 Girl Scout cookie season! From flavors to pricing, we’ve got the scoop.

When is Girl Scout Cookie season 2024?

The exact dates for the 2024 Girl Scout cookie season vary between each region and troop, but based on years prior, Girl Scouts typically start selling cookies mid-January and stop sales around early April.

According to Girl Scouts of America, the 2024 cookie season officially started in select locations in-person on January 9, and online cookie sales began on February 16.

Where to buy 2024 Girl Scout cookies?

You can buy the 2024 Girl Scout cookies in-person or online this year. You will likely be able to find Girl Scout troops outside of your closest grocery store or gas station, and if you can't find them in-person, Girl Scouts offer online cookie sales and ship cookie boxes nationwide!

Girl Scout Cookie Flavors For 2024

According to the Girl Scouts website, there are 12 different cookies available in 2024. Here's a list of the currently available Girl Scout cookie flavors to get your dessert cravings going:

Adventurefuls: brownie-inspired cookies topped with caramel crème
Caramel Chocolate Chips: gluten free, chewy cookies with caramel, semisweet chocolate chips, and a hint of sea salt

When does the 2024 Girl Scout cookie season end?

According to Girl Scouts USA, previous Girl Scout cookie seasons have typically ended around April. Because the duration of cookie sales varies between different regions of the country, your local Girl Scouts may stop selling cookies earlier or later than other locales.

Bye, PSL! The Starbucks Holiday Menu For 2024 Is Back

So long, pumpkin spice season: Starbucks’ holiday menu has officially returned, and it brings back a ton of seasonal favorites!

In addition to the classic Peppermint Mocha to the beloved Caramel Brûlée Latte, a new Refresher flavor, 6 unique cold foams, and 4 new bakery items are now available at Starbucks locations as the holidays draw near – including many items we predicted! The lineup is honestly wild. The Starbucks holiday menu hit stores on November 7.

If you just can’t wait to order off the Starbucks holiday menu, here’s every offering available at your closest cafe!

When will the Starbucks holiday drinks for 2024 come out?

Starbucks

The new holiday drinks and snacks from Starbucks came out on November 7, 2024.

Will there be holiday cups?

Starbucks

Yes, the Starbucks holiday menu includes some new holiday cup designs! You can peek at all the new designs for 2024 here.

What's missing from this year's rumored Starbucks holiday menu?

Starbucks

The Eggnog Latte, Toasted White Chocolate Mocha, Irish Cream Cold Brew, and Gingerbread Loaf won't be returning to cafes for 2024. We're especially sad to see the Toasted White Chocolate Mocha not included, though the official menu lineup has yet to be released!

When is Starbucks Red Cup Day 2024?

Starbucks

Though there's no official word out about Red Cup Day for 2024, our best guess – based on the Red Cup Days of years past – is it'll return mid-November. In 2023, Red Cup Day fell on November 16. In 2022, the coffee chain held the event on November 17. Both dates landed on the third Thursday of November, so we predict it to hit on November 21 for 2024. Red Cup Day is when Starbucks customers can get a free reusable red cup when they order a seasonal drink off the holiday menu!

Initially introduced for fall 2024, it appears as though the Salted Pecan Crunch Cold Brew will stay on the Starbucks menu well into winter. The salted, pecan-flavored cold foam offers that classic sweet n' salty twist you'd enjoy on fall snacks like trail mix or dipped pretzels. The best part is you can now also order the cold foam in non-dairy form!

Starbucks

Holiday Cold Foams

Starbs will also be bringing back four beloved holiday-flavored cold foamsand two new options for 2024. They're the perfect drink customization to add to your iced coffees and cold brews if you don't want to order an all-out holiday drink. See all the flavors below:

NEW! Gingerbread
NEW! Salted Pecan
Peppermint Chocolate
Sugar Cookie
Chestnut Praline
Caramel Brûlée

The Cranberry Bliss Bar has become an absolute staple on the Starbucks holiday menu, and for good reason! This blondie treat is smothered in a delicious cream cheese frosting and sprinkled with orange zest and dried cranberries for added seasonal enjoyment.

What People Are Saying About The Leaked Starbucks Holiday Menu

View this post on Instagram
A post shared by Markie_devo (@markie_devo)

Famed foodie account @markie_devo was the first to leak the Starbucks holiday menu earlier this year. Though most commenters on @markie_devo's Starbucks holiday menu leak post seemed to be excited for the upcoming rumored menu items, some Starbs fans noticed a few things missing from the leaked lineup.

"Still missing eggnog 😢," someone noted.

"Where is the toasted white chocolate mocha 😢😢😢😢," another questioned.

"ALLLLLL these cold foams, and not the one people want: Irish Cream," one more commenter said.

"Ugh still no gingerbread loaf 😭," a disappointed user wrote. "Everything else looks bomb though!"

Despite the Eggnog Latte, Toasted White Chocolate Mocha, Irish Cream Cold Brew, and Gingerbread loaf not being part of this year's menu predictions, the holiday season is our favorite time of year at Starbucks. Many more users shared the same sentiment:

"So excited for all chestnut praline shaken espressos & cranberry bliss bars 🎄🎄🎄🎄," someone wrote.

"Oh hell yess all the chestnut praline offerings," another rejoiced.
