Ingredients
- 2 tbsp baking cocoa
- 1/2 cup butter softened
- 1 cup sugar
- 2 eggs
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1 tsp. mint extract
- 1 1/2 cup PLUS 1 tbs all-purpose flour
- 1 1/2 tsp. baking powder
- green food coloring about 3-5 drops
CHOCOLATE GANACHE FROSTING
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1-2 tbsp heavy cream
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease or spray the bottom only of a 8 x 8-inch square pan.
- Cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition; add milk and beat until incorporated.
- Mix flour and baking powder and stir into butter/egg mixture. Remove half of the batter to a separate bowl. Stir cocoa into one half of the batter. Add mint extract and food coloring to other half of the batter.
- Drop batters by heaping tablespoonfulls alternating chocolate and green batters in marble cake fashion. Lightly swirl batter in pan.
- Bake at 350 degrees for 25-30 minutes. Let cool.
- Prepare ganache frosting by microwaving chocolate chips and heavy cream(start with 1 tbs of cream, you can add more if necessary) at 1 minute intervals at 50% power; stir. Repeat until frosting is smooth in texture. You should have a thick but pourable consistency. Pour on top of brownies and spread evenly. Let ganache set--about 1 hour.
- Makes 9 brownies.
