Chocolate Mint Brownies

TOTAL TIME: Prep: 20 min. Bake: 30 min. + chilling YIELD: 6 dozen.
One of the best things about this recipe is that these mint chocolate brownies get moister if you leave them in the refrigerator for a day or two. The problem at our house is that no one can leave them alone for that long! —Helen Baines, Elkton, Maryland
