BETTY CROCKER MINT CHIP BROWNIE MIX RECIPES

Steps:

• Prepare brownie batter, according to box instructions.
• Spread batter evenly in a 9 inch square pan, lined with aluminum foil and sprayed with oil. 
• For the cookie layer, you have 2 options:Option 1: Roll out the cookie dough between 2 sheets of wax paper. It should be approximately the same size as your pan. Gently place the cookie dough layer on top of the brownie layer. Don't press it down.Option 2: Instead of rolling out the dough, scoop out spoonfuls of the cookie dough and flatten it with your hands and piece it together on top of the brownie batter.
• Bake at 350 degrees F for 25-30 minutes or until top is golden brown and an inserted toothpick in the center comes out with a few sticky crumbs. 
• Allow it to cool down completely. 
• Then, use a sharp knife to cut slices. Enjoy!

Steps:

• Make and bake boxed brownie mix according to the packaged directions. Bake in a 9 x 9 baking dish with parchment paper-with extra parchment paper sticking out over the edges to lift out of the pan later. Do not over bake-check a couple minutes before 40 minutes-brownie needs to be set.
• Note: When adding the extract, begin with 1/4 tsp and taste frosting. Add more if desired. (I like the 1/2 tsp-but it may be strong to others)
• After brownie has cooled completely, mix mint frosting ingredients in a mixing bowl with an electric mixer, until smooth and creamy.
• Spread mint frosting on top of the brownie and place in the freezer for 15-20 minutes.
• After mint frosting has set in the freezer, make the ganache: heat chocolate chips and butter in a microwave safe bowl, in the microwave. Heat on 1/2 power. Stir every 20 seconds until chocolate is smooth and creamy.
• Spread ganache over the mint frosting and place back in the freezer for about 20 minutes or a little more, if desired. Freezing helps with cleaner cuts when cutting the brownies (as well as wiping your knife clean between cuts).
• Cut brownies store in the refrigerator.
