Vegan Creme de Menthe Brownies

October 9, 2025 By Gretchen

Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

Don’t hate on my cream to brownie ratio~ I know it’s off the charts!

But believe me you’ll agree once you taste these Vegan Creme de Menthe Brownies

I’ll admit I thought I went overboard with the amount of cream but after my first bite I know it’s perfect!

Vegan Creme de Menthe Brownies

My best fudge brownies recipe and super easy American buttercream all jacked up with Creme de Menthe!

OliveNation has a creme de menthe flavoring that is non alcoholic *not sponsored
Otherwise you can absolutely use the real deal for an adult dessert with a pinch of alcohol!

Ganache icing is optional but a thin layer gives these Vegan Creme de Menthe Brownies a touch more elegance!

Sprinkles are really cute too!

Notes for Success:

Start with 1 Tablespoon and see how you like it! Then add more from there if you want more!
Otherwise you can absolutely use the real deal Creme De Menthe for an adult dessert with a pinch of alcohol!

Feel free to use your favorite brownie recipe if it is not mine 🙁
And I also have a box brownie hack for the most perfect vegan brownies ever!

The brownie recipe I am using will be great for an 8″ x 8″ cake pan

Prep Time 1 hour hr
Cook Time 27 minutes mins
Total Time 1 hour hr 27 minutes mins
Servings 12

Ingredients
  

  • 1 Recipe Fudge Brownies
  • ½ Recipe American Buttercream
  • 1 -2 Tablespoon Creme de Menthe flavor
  • OR 2 teaspoons Mint Extract
  • ¼ Recipe Ganache
  • Sprinkles optional
  • Green Food Color *optional

Instructions
 

  • First prepare fudge brownie as per the instructions on that recipe post but you will be baking the brownies in an 8" x 8" square pan instead
  • While they are baking prepare the buttercream recipe, this is going to give you slightly more than you need to ice an 8" x 8" square brownie, but just use as much as you like & freeze or refrigerate the rest for later
  • Add the creme de menthe flavoring to the buttercream at the last stage of mixing along with the optional green food coloring
  • Make the ganache recipe while the brownies are cooling
  • Ice the cooled brownies with the creme de menthe buttercream, refrigerate to set the buttercream to cold and then pour the warm (not hot!) ganache over top
  • Sprinkles are optional

Notes

Storage Creme de Menthe Brownies can be stored at room temperature for up to 1 week
Refrigerate or freeze for longer storage wrapped well to prevent drying

      Hi Felicitas! Life’s been kicking me around a lot lately and the video production consumes average 3 full days from start to final production and it just isn’t possible anymore. Especially when *sadly I make on average $5 per video – you do the math! The video segment of this “business” is no longer feasible!
