I don't know about anyone else, but I used to absolutely LOVE cosmic brownies as a kid. They were so fudgy and delicious, so I made a paleo and vegan cosmic brownie recipe last year. The other day I decided to make a mint version because I loveeeee anything mint + chocolate. These are fudgy, paleo, vegan, gluten-free, dairy-free, refined sugar-free, and so so heavenly!
