   BROWNIE LAYER: Cream soft butter with sugar. Add eggs
   one at a time and mix until creamy. Stir in vanilla
   and nuts. Gradually stir in flour; being careful
   not to overmix.

   Stir chocolate into batter evenly. Pour batter into
   greased 8-inch square casserole. Spread evenly. Cook

   brownies, evenly. Allow mint layer to “firm up” before
   adding chocolate layer.
   CHOCOLATE LAYER: Melt in glass measure cup for 2-3
   minutes. Stir after 1 minute. Allow to cool and spread
   over firm mint layer. Spread carefully so mint and
   brownie layers are not disturbed. allow to stand
   several hours. Cut

   I usually bake a 9 X 13 pan of brownies from a mix!
   Double the mint and chocolate icing recipes. This is a
   very popular brownie! Wonderful for St. Pat’s and
   Christmas parties....  and just about anytime!
