Brownies:
Melt together 2/3 cup butter with 3 squares baking chocolate (or if you don't have baking squares you can substitute them with 9 tablespoons cocoa and 3 tablespoons oil)
Combine:
- 2 cups sugar
- 4 eggs
- 1 tablespoon mint extract
- 1 1/2 cups flour
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
Add chocolate mixture to above mixture and mix well. Pour in a greased 9x13" pan and bake 325 degrees for 25-30 minutes.
Cool brownies then make icing and spread on top.
Icing:
- 6 tablespoons butter (softened)
- 4 tablespoons evaporated milk
- 1/2 teaspoon mint extract
- green food coloring
- 2 cups powdered sugar
Put frosted brownies in refrigerator 30 minutes, then melt:
- 3 tablespoons butter
- 6 oz. chocolate chips
Carefully spread ontop of icing before chocolate sets.
*For an easier version, use a brownie mix for the brownie part and just add the mint, then make the frosting and chocolate.

Yea!! Thanks Laura! I've been wanting to ask you for that recipe for a long time, but kept forgetting. Mike LOVES minty stuff, so I'll have to make these for him when he comes home for his midtour leave. I remember they were soooo yummy!
**And make sure you put the green food coloring in the frosting or you'll never taste the mint, right Princess? :)
It's true!!! No green...no mint, no matter how much you might put in!!!
Most delicious! Thanks!
