Chocolate Mint Brownies

A Christmas tradition around my house growing up was chocolate mint brownies.  They are super easy to make but are incredibly tasty.

Step 1: Make the glaze.  For this mix milk, powdered sugar, green food coloring and a splash of peppermint extract. 
 Go easy on the extract as it is strong stuff.  To get the right consistency just add sugar and milk as needed to get a smooth and flowing mixture but thick enough that it won't just ooze everywhere.


Step 2: Make your favorite brownies

Step 3: Once your brownies have cooled completely add the green glaze

Step 4: Let the glaze sit for an hour or so to start setting, then drizzle with melted chocolate.  Go crazy, have fun, pretend to be Jackson Pollock for a few minutes!

Step 5: Allow the brownies to set overnight then slice and serve
