If you are in need of a summertime picnic dessert or perhaps a sweet treat to put in the kids' lunches as they head back to school, this yummy brownie does the trick. Olivia found this recipe at www.wineandglue.com. The mint in this recipe elevates it above the common, ordinary brownie.
This recipe is easy and something a little different to add to your bar cookie favorites. If you want to go all out with a decadent dessert, try making a brownie sundae with vanilla ice cream and chocolate sauce or even mint chocolate chip ice cream. It will have you coming back for more!

Mint Chocolate Brownies
Ingredients
- 1 box of fudgey brownie mix
- 2 cups powdered sugar
- 8 TBSPs of butter softened like almost melted
- 2 TBSPs milk
- dash of green food coloring
- 1 1/2 tsp mint extract
- 6 ounces semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 8 TBSPs of butter
Instructions
- Bake up your brownies in a 9by 13 inch pan. Let cool in the refrigerator for a half hour (at least).
- Combine the powdered sugar, milk, butter, green food coloring, and mint extract. Pour over the cooled brownies and smooth out with the back of a spoon. Refrigerate for another half hour.
- Melt the chocolate chips in butter in the microwave or a small saucepan over medium-low heat. Pour over the chilled brownies & mint. Tip the pan to make it spread evenly. Pop back in the refrigerator to let it set, at least a half hour.
- To make slicing easier, dip your knife into a hot glass of water and wipe off the excess water between each slice into the brownies.
