How To Make Chocolate Brownie Mint Pie Recipe

If you like this recipe, please share!

Math classes everywhere will celebrate Pi Day. You know 3.14, the mathematical constant, the irrational number used in many formulas in all areas of mathematics and physics. The one thing that if you’re not good at math or like math that you probably remember from your youth. So to celebrate Pi Day, I made brownie mint pie. Six of them actually. Why so many? Because I make them for my boys to take into their math classes to share with the class and teacher. This is my fourth year making pies.

In previous years I’ve made whoopie pies but moon pies would be fun too. I’ve made chicken pot pie for dinner as well. The kids love the treat and the teachers appreciate a minor diversion. Truth be told, I hate math and anyone who knows me well, knows this, but I love baking so this is has become a tradition.

Sometimes you need easy recipes, super easy recipes. This is one of those super easy recipes. Brownie mint pie starts with a brownie mix. You’ll notice in the photo and the recipe that I used a frozen pie crust. In the interest of time when making so many for the kids, I switched it up and used store-bought Oreo cookie crusts. A real time saver since there is no thawing time. Both types of crusts make a delicious pie. I would say it’s a matter of preference just how much chocolate you want in the pie.
