Mint Brownies

I love my Dad's recipe for brownies they are so yummy! But the mint and chocolate layer make them even more delicious than they already are! 

Willie's brownies: 

1c. sugar 

2 eggs 

1/3 c. softened butter

4 T cocoa

1 tsp. vanilla extract

2/3 c. flour

½ tsp. baking powder

¼ tsp. salt

½ c. Chocolate chips

¼ c. nuts  (optional)

Combine sugar, eggs, butter, cocoa, and vanilla. Beat until creamy. Add flour, baking powder, and salt; mix well. Add Nuts. Spread in greased 8 inch square baking powder pan. Bake at 350 degrees for 25-30 minutes. After cooled, you can eat or top with two yummy layers:

Mint layer: 2 cups powdered sugar 1/4 cup melted butter 2 T milk 1/2 t. peppermint extract 2 drops green food coloring 

Chocolate layer (goes on top of mint)
3/4 cup chocolate chips
4 T melted butter
