Mint Brownie Pie

TOTAL TIME: Prep: 20 min. + chilling Bake: 20 min. + cooling YIELD: 8 servings.
I first served this treat to my family on St. Patrick's Day, and it was an instant success. Now I serve it year-round; in the winter, I leave out the green food coloring to make a cool white mint pie. —Karen Hayes,Conneaut Lake, Pennsylvania.
