Conference Brownies

submitted by Missy



Make a brownie mix for the bottom layer. Cool them completely in the pan and refrigerate while you make the frosting.

The frosting is:

1 cube butter
1 t. vanilla
green AND blue food coloring-to desired color
mint extract-to desired taste (I like mine strong!)
powdered sugar to make a thick paste

Spread the frosting on the chilled brownies and put back in the fridge. The top layer is melted chocolate chips (about 3/4 package); stir in 1 T. vegetable oil until smooth. Spread the chocolate on the top and put back in the fridge until ready to serve.
