Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x13 inch baking dish.
- Melt the unsweetened chocolate in a cup or small bowl in the microwave. Stir at 15 second intervals until chocolate is smooth. Allow to cool slightly. Transfer to a large bowl, and stir in the margarine and sugar until smooth. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla. Stir in the flour just until blended. Pour the batter into the prepared dish and spread evenly.
- Bake in the preheated oven until the surface appears dry and the sides are beginning to pull away from the edges of the pan, 20 to 25 minutes. The brownies may look more like cake and may jiggle slightly in the center- this is normal. Remove from the oven and cool in the pan set over a wire rack.
- To make the middle layer, beat 1/2 cup of butter with confectioners' sugar in a large bowl using an electric mixer. Add milk as needed to get a spreadable consistency. Stir in the peppermint extract and green food coloring. Spread this over the cooled pan of brownies. Refrigerate for 30 minutes
- In a microwave-safe bowl, microwave chocolate chips with the butter until melted. Stir every 20 seconds until chocolate is smooth. Stir in vanilla and then pour over the chilled brownies and quickly spread to cover the surface. Cool again until firm, about 10 minutes, then cut into squares and serve.

Steps:
- Prepare Chocolate Cookie Crumb Crust (for a homemade version try Recipe #353150).
- In small mixer bowl, beat cream cheese until fluffy.
- Gradually add sugar, beating until well blended.
- Add cocoa alternately with milk, beating until smooth.
- Gradually fold in 3 cups whipped topping; spoon mixture over crumb crust.
- In small bowl stir together remaining 2 cups whipped topping, mint extract and food color; spread over chocolate layer.
- Cover. Chill about 6 hours or until set.
- Cut into squares to serve. Garnish with mint leaves, if desired.
Tips:
- Prep Work: Before starting, ensure all ingredients are at room temperature. Properly measure and prepare ingredients to prevent errors. Line a 9x13 inch baking pan with parchment paper for easy removal of the dessert squares.
- Creaming Butter and Sugar: Use softened butter for a smooth and creamy mixture. Cream butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. This step incorporates air, which contributes to the texture of the squares.
- Dry Ingredients: Mix dry ingredients, including flour, baking powder, and salt, in a separate bowl. Gradually add them to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Overmixing can lead to dense squares.
- Filling and Toppings: Spread a layer of creamy chocolate and mint filling over the crust. Add a streusel topping made with oats, flour, brown sugar, butter, and cinnamon for a crunchy texture.
- Baking: Bake the dessert squares in a preheated oven until the crust is golden brown and the streusel topping is set. Use a toothpick inserted into the center to check for doneness. Avoid overbaking.
- Cooling and Cutting: Let the dessert squares cool completely before cutting them into bars. This helps to prevent crumbling. Use a sharp knife to make clean and even cuts.
Conclusion:
Combining the flavors of chocolate and mint, these Irish dessert squares are a delectable treat. With a buttery crust, creamy filling, and a crunchy streusel topping, these squares offer a delightful combination of textures and flavors. Perfect for St. Patrick's Day or any occasion, they are easy to make and sure to impress your friends and family. Enjoy the luck of the Irish with these delicious dessert squares!
