Mmmmm... these are soooo good! I can brag on these, because they are not my recipe. A big thank you goes out to my friend Crystal for this brownie recipe! These are my flagship, premium, signature, best-ever dessert that I make when I want to impress friends and family. Maybe it's because of all that butter? Hmmm.... butter, of course, makes them taste the best, but you could use a substitute as well! My family regularly requests these for get togethers. I hope your family loves them too!
These are made in three parts (for the three layers) and refrigerated after each part is made.
Layer 1: Brownies
Boil together in a heavy saucepan:
2 cubes butter (1/2 lb.)
1 cup water
4 Tbs. Cocoa
Meanwhile mix together the dry ingredients:
2 cups flour
2 cups sugar
½ tsp. Salt
1 tsp. Baking soda
When chocolate mixture has come to a boil, take from heat and immediately add to the dry ingredients.

Then add:
½ c. sour cream
2 eggs
Mix well. Batter will be quite thin. Pour into greased and floured 10” x 15” cookie sheet with sides. Bake for 20-25 minutes at 375ºF. Let cool completely. (I put them in the fridge to speed the process up a bit.)
Layer 2: Mint Icing
3 c. powdered sugar
¾ c. butter, softened
1 t. Mint extract
1 ½ - 2 T. Milk
Green food coloring
Cream ingredients together and spread on cooled cake. Refrigerate.
Layer 3: Glaze
¾ c. butter, softened
1 t. Mint extract
1 ½ - 2 T. Milk
Green food coloring
Cream ingredients together and spread on cooled cake. Refrigerate.
Layer 3: Glaze
1 ½ cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
1 cube butter (1/2 c.)
Melt chocolate chips and butter together. When cool but still spreadable, spread over mint layer.
Store covered in the refrigerator. These also freeze well. I hope you'll be able to taste why these are the best! Mmmmm, enjoy!
