If you've ever dreamt about a mint chocolate sandwich, then we're here to make your wishes come true! Our Double Chocolate Mint Bars starts off with a brownie-like layer of chocolate, that gets topped with a pretty mint cream, before getting a final layer of yummy chocolate chip spread!
What You'll Need
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 2 3/4 sticks butter, softened, divided
- 4 eggs
- 1 1/2 cups (16 ounces) chocolate-flavored syrup
- 2 cups confectioners' sugar
- 1 tablespoon water
- 1/2 teaspoon mint extract
- 3 drops green food color
- 1 cup (1 six-ounce package) semisweet chocolate chips
What to Do
- Preheat the oven to 350 degree F.
- In a large bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, 1 stick butter, eggs, and chocolate flavored syrup, and mix until smooth.
- Pour mixture into a greased 9" x 13" baking pan and bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until a wooden toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool completely.
- In a large bowl, combine the confectioners' sugar, 1 stick softened butter, water, mint extract, and green food color, and beat until smooth. Spread over the cooled crust. Refrigerate for 1 hour.
- Place the remainining 3/4 stick butter and semisweet chocolate chips in a small microwavable bowl and melt on high power in the microwave. Stir with a wooden spoon until blended and smooth.
- Spread over the cooled mint cream layer. Refrigerate for 1 hour, then serve.
Notes
- This must be kept refrigerated or the top layers will melt. It's best not to substitute margarine for butter in this recipe.

I make something very similar, but use creme de menthe instead of mint extract. Excellent.

Herb Crusted Lamb with Mint Sauce 
Instead of cooking ham or prime rib for Easter, why not try something new this year? Our Herb-Crusted Lamb with Mint Sauce may look and sound fancy, but it's really easy to do. It's basically a rack of lamb that's coated with herbs and spices before it's roasted to perfection. Just before serving, it's finished off with a mint-wine reduction. The end result is an Easter-worthy main dish that'll impress everyone at the table.
