Ingredients

1 cup unsalted butter
8 ounces semi-sweet chocolate, chopped
2 cups granulated sugar
4 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup all-purpose flour
½ teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 cup powdered sugar
2 tablespoons milk
1 teaspoon peppermint extract
Green food coloring (as desired)

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking pan and line it with parchment paper.
Melt butter and chocolate in a saucepan over low heat until smooth; cool slightly.
In a bowl, whisk together melted chocolate mixture and sugar until combined. Add eggs one at a time, then stir in vanilla.
In another bowl, combine flour, salt, and baking powder; gradually mix into the chocolate batter until just combined.
Pour batter into the pan and bake for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick comes out with moist crumbs.
For the mint swirl, mix powdered sugar, milk, peppermint extract, and food coloring until smooth.
Spread mint mixture over cooled brownies; use a knife to create swirls.
Chill for about an hour before cutting into squares.
