Instructions
- First prepare fudge brownie as per the instructions on that recipe post but you will be baking the brownies in an 8" x 8" square pan instead
- While they are baking prepare the buttercream recipe, this is going to give you slightly more than you need to ice an 8" x 8" square brownie, but just use as much as you like & freeze or refrigerate the rest for later
- Add the creme de menthe flavoring to the buttercream at the last stage of mixing along with the optional green food coloring
- Make the ganache recipe while the brownies are cooling
- Ice the cooled brownies with the creme de menthe buttercream, refrigerate to set the buttercream to cold and then pour the warm (not hot!) ganache over top
- Sprinkles are optional
