From my archives: Chocolate Mint Brownies 1st LAYER: 1/2 c. (1 stick) butter 1 c. sugar 4 eggs 1/2 tsp baking powder 1/2 tsp salt 1 c. flour 1 16-oz. can Hershey chocolate syrup Cream butter, add sugar & beaten eggs. Add baking powder, salt, and flour. Mix well then add chocolate syrup. Spread in greased 9 X 13" pan. Bake at 350 degrees for about 25 to 30 minutes (you don't want the brownies runny, but moist & gooey is good). Cool. 2nd LAYER: 1/2 c. (1 stick) butter 2 c. powdered sugar 2 Tbsp milk 1 tsp peppermint or mint extract 7 drops green food coloring Cream butter and add remaining ingredients. Mix and spread over cooled brownies. Refrigerate 20 minutes. 3rd LAYER: 1/2 c. butter 6 oz. (1 cup) chocolate chips (sometimes I'll just use most of a 12 oz bag -- and then I'll snack on the rest of the bag :-) ) Melt butter & chocolate chips. Pour over second layer. Cool 20-30 minutes. Cut into very small pieces (this is a very rich dessert and a taste is all that is necessary to really enjoy it) when chocolate is firm but before chocolate hardens. Sometimes I will multiply this recipe by 1 1/2 and make it in an 11X 15 inch pan to take to share at a potluck. The only problem is that it always goes over very well and I never get to bring any home....
