Chocolate Mint Brownies

Happy St. Patrick’s Day to everyone!  It’s 5 o’clock here, time to drink some green beer!   Actually I don’t like beer, but it sounded good.  🙂  Instead, how about an easy and delicious chocolate mint brownie recipe for St. Paddy’s Day.  I am really not sure what green mint brownies have to do with this Irish holiday, other than the fact that they have a yummy green vanilla frosting …but Irish recipe or not everyone loves a brownie!  A green, mint-chocolatety chewy moist brownie, yum!  I hope you enjoy!

I think I will join the fun over at Fiesta Friday link-up party.  I hope they enjoy the brownies!  Until next time …Happy Baking!
