2 cups granulated sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt

2 cups sifted confectioners' sugar
4 tablespoons green creme de menthe (or use green food coloring plus a dash of peppermint extract)
6 ounces semi-sweet chocolate chips
6 tablespoons unsalted butter

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Mist 9x13 baking pan with cooking spray.
  • Prepare brownies: In double boiler, melt baking chocolate and 1 cup butter over simmering water; cool slightly.
  • In medium mixing bowl, beat eggs with a whisk until blended, then add the 2 cups granulated sugar and continue whisking until mixture is light and fluffy.
  • Add cooled chocolate mixture, salt, vanilla and flour.
  • Keep whisking until thoroughly blended.
  • Pour batter into prepared pan and bake 25 minutes.
  • Remove from oven and leave brownies to cool in pan.
  • Make filling: Using an electric mixer on medium speed, beat the 1/2 cup butter and confectioners' sugar together until well blended.
  • Stir in the creme de menthe and blend well.
  • Spread over cooled brownies.
  • Refrigerate in original baking pan until filling is firm.
  • Make icing: Melt the chocolate chips and 6 T butter in the top of a double boiler, stirring until smooth. (You can do this in the microwave, just monitor closely and stir a few times.).
  • Pour the warm glaze over the filling and tilt pan to distribute the icing evenly.
  • Refrigerate until chocolate hardens.
  • To cut, allow brownies to come to room temperature in the pan so chocolate doesn't crack.

Tips:

  • Mise en Place: Before you start baking, make sure you have all the ingredients and tools you need. This will help you stay organized and avoid any mishaps.
  • Use High-Quality Ingredients: The quality of your ingredients will directly impact the taste of your brownies. Use the best chocolate, butter, and cocoa powder you can find.
  • Don't Overmix the Batter: Overmixing the batter will make your brownies tough and dense. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the Brownies Until They Are Set: The brownies are done baking when a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs attached.
  • Let the Brownies Cool Completely Before Cutting: This will help them hold their shape and prevent them from crumbling.
