Instructions
The Brownie 'Crust'
- Grease a 15x20 baking pan, set aside. Preheat oven to 325 F
- In a mixing bowl, cream the sugar & softened butter. Add eggs, chocolate syrup, flour and baking powder. Mix well.
- Put mixture into the greased baking pan. Bake at 325 F for 17-20 minutes (no longer then 20 minutes, they may not look done but they are!). Set aside.
Mint Filling
- Mix all of the filling ingredients together in mixing bowl until well-combined. Then, spread evenly over the crust.
- Refrigerate until firm, about 10-15 minutes. (I put in freezer for faster results)
Chocolate Frosting
- Melt butter and chocolate chips together. Stir well. Pour over cool brownies & filling.
- Cool slightly, 5-10 minutes. Then cut into squares. Return to refrigerator until hard. Enjoy!
- These can stay in freezer until ready to eat (will last weeks).
