directions
- For the brownies, preheat oven to 325ºF. Coat a 13x9-inch baking pan with non-stick cooking spray. Line the pan with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, whisk melted butter, sugar and brown sugar until combined. Add eggs, coffee and vanilla, continuing to whisk until smooth. Add flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, salt, chopped chocolate mint sandwich cookies, chocolate chips and Junior Mints, stirring just until flour has disappeared. Spread into prepared pan and bake for 45 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool completely before frosting.
- For the frosting, using an electric mixer, combine butter, icing sugar, melted white chocolate, milk, vanilla extract and a drop or two of green food coloring. Beat on medium speed until a creamy consistency. Spread over cooled brownies and drizzle melted chocolate over top. Refrigerate for an hour before cutting.
