My co-worker Angela introduced these to me and I just had to make them for the fourth of July. They are super delicious and if you love mint then you will love these.
Ingredients:
Brownies
Brownie mix (a mix that will fill a 9 by 13 pan). I used two bags from the Ghiradelli triple chocolate brownie mix from Costco. yumm.
Mint Layer
2 cups powdered sugar
1/4 cup butter, melted
2 tablespoons milk
1/2 teaspoon peppermint extract
2 drops green food coloring
Chocolate Glaze:
3/4 cup semisweet chocolate chips
2 tablespoons butter
Directions:
- Prepare brownies as instructed on brownie mix box. Cool completely, maybe refrigerate for at least an hour.
- To prepare mint layer, combine the powdered sugar and the melted butter in a medium bowl; stir together with a whisk or a mixer until well blended. Then add milk, peppermint, and food coloring and mix well until the mixture becomes smooth, green, and frosting-like in texture. Spread mint mixture over cooled brownies.
- To prepare the glaze, combine the chocolate chips and the butter in a medium microwave safe bowl. Microwave on high in 30 second intervals, stirring after each 30 seconds until melted (about 1 minute total). Let stand for 2 minutes. Spread chocolate mixture over top of mint. Cover and refrigerate until 20 minutes before serving, so that cutting goes smoothly. ENJOY!
