Are you a mint chocolate person? I one hundred percent AM. I love it, and not just around the holidays. Peppermint cheesecake brownies definitely are holiday appropriate but can be enjoyed year round. Mint cookie ice cream is one of my favorite flavors. I love thin mints, and mint Oreos, and my mom always made…
