For day 5 of our 12 days of Trader Joe's (we're going through the 31st in case you're worried we'll run out of time), we're reviewing Trader Joe's Mint Fudge Brownie Bar.
You'll find this in the freezer section. It thaws in the fridge, the counter, or the microwave - you choose. It's one pound of mint-flavored brownie, and it'll cost you $5.99.
She says: Ding! Ding! Ding! We have a winner! This brownie bar is like an Andes Chocolate Mint was reincarnated into a brownie. The brownie layer is fudgy and luscious. The mint layer is minty (I guess that goes without saying) and refreshing. The ganache layer is thick and absolute perfection. You could absolutely serve it to guests...or eat while wearing your pjs and watching the Real Housewives.
Overall rating: 5 of 5 stars
He says (Jack): Give me more!! Again, like many of my reviews of good desserts, it's all about balance. The minty-ness is definitely prominent, but not too much, and the chocolate comes through in full force. I like that the brownie part and the top chocolate layer seem to have the same type of chocolate so they "agree" well. Also, that top layer is just stiff enough to help hold the whole thing together, but gives way easily to taste the mint layer underneath. The brownie base especially is awesome!
Overall rating: 5 out of 5 stars
