4 eggs
2 c. sugar
1 3/4 c. flour

3 Tbsp. milk
1 Tbsp. light corn syrup

So I've never had these, but the picture looks great. And I love mint and chocolate together. Next time I make brownies...well, after Celeste's peanut butter ones, I'm totally trying these.
How funny that you have to add the green coloring in for the mint. I've heard about these before and Olivia is into mint chocolate lately (thanks to Trader Joe's mint cocoa) so I'll have to try these someday very soon! Tell Brent thanks for the "hint"
YUMMY!! I can not wait for a reason to make these. I might have to make them real soon. Mint brownies are my favorite :)!!
