Marta's Mint Brownies
2 1/2 C. Sugar
2 C. Flour
1/2 C. Cocoa
1 tsp salt
1 Tbsp vanilla
2 1/2 Cubes Butter (1 1/2 Cup), softened
6 eggs
Mix all ingredients, add eggs one at a time until all is well blended. Bake @350 for 25-27 minutes.
*She mentioned she uses a jelly roll pan, but mine was too small, they were overflowing the edges. Maybe the cookie sheet next time? Or use two pans?
When they come out of the oven top with mint chocolate chips, let them soften, and then spread for the mint layer. Cool, then add frosting on top.
Frosting:
1/2 C. Butter
1/4 C. cocoa.
Met together on med heat.
6 Tbsp evaporated milk (or can just use regular milk)
Bring to a boil, cool slightly
1 tsp vanilla
4+ Cups Powdered sugar.
(You want this on the runnier side or it gets too dry when it cools)
*variations - when brownies have been baking 20 minutes add mini marshmallows to the top and let continue baking until done, then skip the mint and frosting part.
I used peppermint kisses instead of mint chocolate chips for Chistmas, then I sprinkled broken candy cane pieces on the top of the frosting. Worked great.
