Chocolate and Mint Brownies (in delicious layers)

An easy to make and refreshing brownie treat! From a longtime reader in California who has had this recipe for years (and, apparently, her teenage daughters made it constantly)!!!!

 

 
Ingredients

For the Brownies
  • 2 eggs, lightly beaten
  • 1/2 cup (4 ounces) margarine, melted
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 2 ounces unsweetened chocolate, melted (if using bittersweet or semisweet, omit a wee bit of the sugar... --Ed.)
  • 1/2 teaspoon mint extract
  • 1/2 cup flour
For the Topping
  • 2 Tablespoons margarine, softened
  • 1 Tablespoon cream or half & half
  • 1 cup confectioner's (powdered) sugar
  • 1 teaspoon mint extract
For the Glaze
  • 1 1/2 ounce bittersweet chocolate
  • 1 Tablespoon margarine (add a dash more if the glaze is too thick)
Directions
  1. Heat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Lightly butter a 9-inch square baking pan.
  2. Mix eggs, melted margarine, sugar, the first of the mint extract, and then the melted chocolate together. Stir well.
  3. Add the flour, stir well.
  4. Pour into the prepared pan, smooth the top, and bake for 20 minutes (no more than 25 minutes).
  5. Cool and spread on the topping of softened margarine, cream, powdered sugar, and last of the mint extract, all mixed together until smooth and spreadable.
  6. Chill in the refrigerator while you melt the chocolate and last of the margarine together for the glaze.
  7. Spread chocolate glaze gently over the cream and mint topping. Chill again until firm. Cut into squares. Serve plain or with mint ice cream and chocolate sauce!!!
 

Enjoy!
