Chocolate Mint Brownies to Die For

Just had these at my neighbor's party.  Soooo good!

Brownies

1 cup sugar
1/2 cup melted butter
2 beaten eggs
2 squares Baker's Unsweetened Chocolate, melted
1/2 tsp. peppermint flavoring (quality brand)
1/2 cup sifted flour
1/2 cup chopped nuts

Beat eggs, butter, and sugar together.  Add melted chocolate and peppermint flavoring.  Stir thoroughly.  Add flour and nuts.  Pour into 9" greased pan and bake at 350° F for 25-30 minutes and cool.

Frosting

1 Tbsp. butter
1 Tbsp. cream
1 cup powdered sugar
1 tsp. peppermint flavoring

Chocolate Coating

1 square Baker's Unsweetened Chocolate, melted
1 Tbsp. melted butter

 Once brownies are cool, spread peppermint frosting on top of brownies and chill.  Top with chocolate coating and chill again. Don't eat too many!!
