Grasshopper Brownies

These brownies have a layer of mint frosting and then are topped with a chocolate.

Ingredients

  • 1 batch Good Dee’s Brownies
  • 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
  • ½ cup butter, softened
  • ⅔ cup powdered erythritol
  • 2-6 drops of green food coloring
  • 1½ tsp peppermint extract
  • 5 ounces dark chocolate, chopped
  • 1 Tbsp butter

Method

  1. Line an 8x8-inch baking pan with parchment paper, with an overhang for easy removal. Prepare the brownie batter as directed for fudge-like brownies. Bake the brownies as directed and let cool completely in the pan.
  2. Beat cream cheese and butter together until smooth. Add sweetener, food coloring and peppermint extract until well combined and smooth. Spread over cooled brownie base and refrigerate until firm, about 1 hour.
  3. In a heatproof bowl set over a pan of barely simmering water, melt chocolate and butter together, stirring until smooth. Spread over chilled filling and let set, about 20 minutes.
