Equipment

Ingredients
  

Brownies

  • 3 cups sugar
  • 3 cups flour
  • 1 cup cocoa
  • 1 ½ tsp salt
  • 6 eggs
  • 1 ½ cups oil
  • ¾ cup milk

Mint Layer

  • ½ cup soft butter
  • 5 cups powdered sugar
  • 1 ½ tsp peppermint extract I use 2 because I like them really minty.
  • Pinch of salt
  • 4 Tbsp milk approximately
  • A few drops of green food coloring

Chocolate topping

  • ½ cup salted butter
  • 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips

Instructions
 

  • Brownies: Combine all ingredients in an large bowl in the order listed and beat or whisk till smooth.
  • Pour into a well greased 15x10" jelly roll pan. Bake at 350° for 28-32 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean. Cool completely.
  • Mint Layer: Beat till smooth, adding enough milk to get a thick and creamy consistency. Spread evenly over brownies. Chill for a few minutes to set.
  • Topping: Melt butter in glass bowl in microwave. Add chips and cook at 50% power, stirring every 30 seconds, until melted and smooth. Drizzle or spread over mint layer. Chill for 1 hour.

Notes

Depending on your oven, the brownies may take longer to bake. As soon as a toothpick comes out clean (or with crumbs on it), they are done.
