Becky's Mint Chocolate Brownies

I know this frosting may not look too appetizing, but these tasted great!

Batter
3/4 C. butter
1 1/2 C. sugar
4 eggs
2 tsp. vanilla
1 1/2 C. flour
1/2 C. cocoa powder
Stir all ingredients together in a large bowl.

Scrape with a spatula into a greased 9X13 inch glass baking dish.

Bake at 325 degrees for 35 minutes, or a 350 degree oven for 20 minutes, or knife comes out clean.
Poke all over with a fork, so frosting can seep in a bit.

Frosting
1/4 C. butter
2 tsp. milk
1 1/2 Tbsp. cocoa powder
1/2 tsp. mint extract
1 1/2 C. powdered sugar (you may need to add more for the right consistency)
A few drops green food coloring. (If you want it brighter green, omit the cocoa powder)
Mix together well with a whisk.
Spread onto warm brownies.

Let cool & cut into squares. (Cut down the middle first, then cut those sections in half, etc. Until you have perfect squares/rectangles).
