Ingredients

• 4 oz unsweetened chocolate
• 1 cup unsalted butter
• 2 cups granulated sugar
• 4 units large eggs
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 2.5 cups powdered sugar
• 0.5 cup unsalted butter (softened)
• 3 tablespoons creme de menthe liqueur
• 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x13 inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the unsweetened chocolate and 1 cup of unsalted butter together in 30-second increments, stirring after each interval until smooth. Let cool slightly.

Step 3

Stir in the granulated sugar until fully incorporated, then beat in the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.

Step 4

Add the all-purpose flour and salt, stirring just until the batter is combined.

Step 5

Pour the brownie batter into the prepared pan and spread it evenly. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out with a few moist crumbs. Allow the brownies to cool completely.

Step 6

To prepare the mint layer, beat the powdered sugar, 0.5 cup of softened butter, and creme de menthe liqueur together until smooth. Spread this mixture evenly over the cooled brownies. Refrigerate for 15-20 minutes to firm up the layer.

Step 7

For the chocolate glaze, melt the semisweet chocolate chips and 2 tablespoons of butter together in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second increments, stirring until smooth.

Step 8

Spread the chocolate glaze over the chilled mint layer, smoothing it out evenly. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes or until the glaze sets.

Step 9

Once the layers are firm, remove the brownies from the pan and cut into squares. Serve chilled or at room temperature.
