mint brownies

Don't these make your mouth water??? sooooo yummy. I kinda played around with a few recipes.

anywho I've had some requests to post it so here it is:

2 C. Sugar

1 C. Butter

4 Eggs

cream until fluffy then add:

2 C. flour

1/2 C. cocoa

1 tsp salt

1 tsp baking powder

1 tsp vanilla

2 Tbsp milk

mix well then bake at 350 for 30-45 min in a 9x13 pan.

(I did do it in the 9x13 but i think next time i'll do a cookie sheet as i like them a little smaller)

Cool for about an hour. you can speed it up in the fridge. then frost with the mint icing.

Mint Icing:

3 Tbsp butter

2 Tbsp milk

1 1/2 C. powdered sugar ( i used closer to 3-4 C)

2-3 drops mint flavoring

green food coloring

Mix well. I added more sugar so it was thicker like a frosting instead of runny.

Drizzle with chocolate

Chocolate Drizzle:

3 Tbsp butter

1/2 C. choc chips ( I used milk)

Melt carefully in microwave. Do 30 sec intervals and stir after each until completely melted. Cool slightly. I just used a fork and kinda drizzled it all over the mint.

Then take some andes mints. I used about 15. I used my Kitchen Aid Food Chopper and chopped them up. THen i just took a handful and sprinkled it all over the brownies.

There you have it!!! BEWARE!!! these are very hard to resist!!!
