Here’s the recipe:

Chocolate Mint Brownies

Whisk together:
1 c. melted butter
½ c. cocoa powder

And then add:
2 c. sugar
4 eggs beaten
1 tsp. vanilla
½ tsp. salt

Mix well and then add:

1 ½ c. sifted flour

Stir in by hand. Do not over mix.

Pour into 9×13 pan sprayed with cooking spray. If making 1 1/2 recipe pour into Baker’s Half Sheet (large cookie sheet.) Bake at 350 degrees for 25-28 minutes. Cool for a few minutes and then place in freezer for 20 minutes.

While brownies are in the freezer make first layer of topping.

Mint frosting:
½ c. butter softened
2 Tbsp. milk
2 c. powdered sugar
1 tsp. peppermint extract
green food coloring

Mix thoroughly. Evenly frost brownies and put back in freezer for 20 minutes. Make chocolate ganache for the top layer.

Chocolate Ganache Topping:
½ c. butter
1 ½ c. good semi sweet chocolate chips

Melt and whisk together. (I melt them together in a Pyrex measuring bowl in the microwave for one minute. Be careful not to overheat. It won’t look melted but once whisked it is.) Drizzle warm chocolate over brownies and spread smooth with a spatula. Put back in freezer for another 20 minutes.
