Ingredients
Scale
- 1 box Enjoy Life Foods brownie mix (follow the instructions on the box)
For the frosting:
- 1/3 c. vegetable shortening
- 1/3 c. nondairy butter, softened
- 3 c. powdered sugar
- 1 Tbsp. nondairy milk
- couple drops mint extract
- couple drops green all natural food coloring
- 1 c. Enjoy Life chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350 degrees. Grease a muffin pan or line with muffin liners.
- Follow the instructions for the brownies according to the box. I used nondairy milk instead of water but just be sure to understand that if you do this, you might need to increase the amount of liquid a little depending on the thickness.
- Pour into the muffin tin, filling 8 cavities 3/4 of the way full and bake for 15-18 min or until the tops of the brownies spring back up when gently pushed down.
- Allow to cool.
- With an electric mixer on medium speed, cream the shortening and nondairy butter together. You can use all shortening or all butter, depending on your food allergies.
- Add the nondairy milk, food coloring, and powdered sugar, 1/2 c. at a time until nice and fluffy. Add the extract in. Fold in the chocolate chips.
- Scoop frosting onto each brownie cupcake.
Notes
This recipe is made with Enjoy Life Food’s brownie mix that is free of all Top 8 food allergies

Because these brownies are made in a muffin tin, they are almost more like cupcakes, especially once they get a nice rise while baking.
You are free to keep the frosting amount the same or half it. I’m not a fan of too much frosting so to each their own.
