Andes Mint Lush

Andes Mint Lush has 4 delicious layers and is full of mint flavor. The bottom layer is a fudgy brownie topped with a minty cream cheese layer, a chocolate pudding layer, and Cool Whip to finish it off. It makes a great potluck holiday dessert. It’s so rich and creamy, it can easily feed 15 people. Great Make-Ahead Dessert Lush desserts are one of my favorite desserts to make. They are so creamy and dreamy.

The only downside of a Lush dessert is quite a few dishes are dirtied. But just think about all those bowls you get to lick! I just used chopped Andes Mint candies for this lush, but if you can find the Andes Mint Baking Chips, go ahead and use them. I can never find them when I am looking for them.

Andes Mint Lush Recipe Tips I like to add a few drops of green food coloring to the cream cheese layer to turn it green, but it is not necessary. Fresh whipped cream can be used instead of the Cool Whip. Storage This Andes Mint Lush can be made 2 to 3 days in advance. Cover it with plastic wrap and refrigerate. If decorating the top with chopped Andes mints, wait until last minute to do it or they will discolor the Cool Whip.
