Our favorite brownie recipe for the Spring Holy Days. These are incredibly rich - a little goes a looong way!! They taste just like the Ande's mints, but in brownie form.

INGREDIENTS

Nutrition

Brownie Layer
2

cups granulated sugar
1

cup butter
4

eggs, beaten
2

cups flour
5

tablespoons unsweetened baking cocoa
¹⁄₈

teaspoon salt
Mint Layer
2

cups confectioners' sugar, sifted
1

teaspoon peppermint extract
¹⁄₂

cup butter, softened
green food coloring (optional)
Chocolate Glaze
6

ounces dark chocolate chips
6

tablespoons butter

DIRECTIONS

Cream sugar and butter well. Add beaten eggs, flour, cocoa and salt and mix until thoroughly combined. Bake in a greased 13x9 pan at 400F for 25 minutes.
While brownies are baking cream together the confectioners sugar, peppermint extract, softened butter and as much food coloring as desired in a bowl and set aside. Spread on brownies after they have cooled in the pan for 15 minutes.
When brownies are completely cool, melt together the chocolate chips and 6Tbsp butter. Spread immediately on top of mint layer of brownies. Chill until set, but soft enough to cut. If chocolate is too hard it will crack and make it difficult to cut brownies squares.
Slice brownies into 2" x 1" squares.
