  • 1 cup butter

  • 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa

  • 2 Tbsp honey

  • 4 eggs

  • 2 cups sugar

  • 1 3/4 cup flour

  • 1/2 Tbsp baking powder

  • 1/2 tsp salt

  • 1 cup chopped walnuts - optional

  • Mint Icing

  • 5 Tbsp butter

  • 1 Tbsp light corn syrup

  • 3 Tbsp milk

  • 2 1/3 cup powdered sugar

  • 1/2 tsp peppermint extract

  • 1-2 drops green food coloring

Directions

  • Melt butter and mix in cocoa. Allow to cool. Add honey, eggs, sugar, flour, baking powder, and salt. Mix well. Add nuts. Pour batter into a greased 9x13 pan. Bake at 350 degrees for 25 minutes. Cool

  • Prepare mint icing. Soften butter, add salt, corn syrup, powder sugar. Beat until smooth and fluffy. Add mint extract and food coloring, mix, add milk gradually until the consistency is a little thinner than cake frosting.

  • Spread mint icing over cooled brownies. Place brownies in a freezer for a short time to stiffen the icing. Remove from the freezer and carefully add a layer of chocolate icing.
