I have shared these Creme de Menthe Brownies countless times but I can’t resist another post on them. They are that good. They are John’s favorite dessert and are a labor of love. Each layer is prepared separately from scratch, but my family loves them just as much as I did the first time I had them in college. They are a true treat here!

½ cup butter , softened
1 cup sugar
4 eggs
1 cup flour

1 (16 ounce) can chocolate syrup
1 teaspoon vanilla
Mint layer:
¼ cup butter, softened
2 cups powdered sugar
2 tablespoons creme de menthe liquor
Chocolate layer:
6 ounces chocolate chips
¼ cup butter

In case you were looking too, I found the shamrocks this year at Publix! I always buy them for our St. Patrick’s Day table and then plant them in pots for the rest of the season.
Slainte!
