CREME DE MENTHE BARS



Creme de Menthe Bars image

his is a very easy recipe. My son won a purple ribbon (which is higher than a blue ribbon) at the county fair when he was 10 years old. This was also his first paid 'catering' job for a graduation party when he was 12 (he's married now, so that gives you a clue as to how long I've had this recipe). Great brownies with a mint flavored filling.

Yield 16 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 (19.5-ounce) box milk chocolate brownie mix (recommended: Pillsbury)
3 eggs
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1/4 cup plus 2 teaspoons creme de menthe liqueur, divided
1/2 cup chopped creme de menthe thins, about 18 (recommended: Andes)
1 (8-ounce) package cream cheese, softened (recommended: Philadelphia)
1/2 cup sugar

Steps:

  • Lightly spray a 1 1/2-quart souffle dish with butter-flavored cooking spray.
  • Make a foil ring, 1-inch thick, for souffle dish to sit on inside a 5-quart slow cooker.
  • In a medium bowl, combine brownie mix, 2 eggs, vegetable oil, and 1/4 cup creme de menthe. Stir using 50 strokes or use a hand blender on medium speed for 1 minute to combine. Fold in chopped mint thins. Transfer to prepared souffle dish and set aside.
  • In a medium bowl, combine cream cheese, remaining egg, sugar, and 2 teaspoons creme de menthe. Using an electric mixer beat on low speed until smooth. Spread over brownie mixture. Use a butter knife to cut cream cheese mixture into brownie mixture for a marble effect.
  • Place souffle dish on top of foil ring in slow cooker. Lay 8 paper towels over top of slow cooker bowl and secure with lid. (This helps to trap steam.)
  • Cook on LOW setting for 4 1/2 to 6 hours. (Do not lift lid to check brownies for the first 3 hours.)
  • Allow brownies to cool completely before cutting.

CREME DE MENTHE BROWNIE SQUARES

These rich three-layer brownie bites have a brownie base, a creamy mint filling, and a rich chocolate glaze. They freeze perfectly, so I always make them well in advance of the important occasion. NOTE: In fall 2008, Starbucks started offering these brownie squares in our area, so you know it is a popular flavor combination!

Time 1h29m

Yield 48 squares, 24 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 (20 ounce) package Pillsbury Fudge Brownie Mix, 9x13 size
4 tablespoons butter, softened
1 (3 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
3 cups confectioners' sugar
2 tablespoons green creme de menthe (or 1 t. mint extract and a couple drops of green food coloring)
6 ounces semi-sweet chocolate chips
3 tablespoons butter

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350°F.
  • BROWNIES: Grease bottom only of 13x9-inch pan. Make and bake brownies according to package directions. DO NOT OVERBAKE. Cool completely (it cannot be frosted until there is no warmth on the bottom of the pan or the frosting will slide around.
  • MINT FROSTING: In medium bowl, beat butter and cream cheese until light and fluffy. Add remaining filling ingredients; beat until smooth. Spread evenly over cooled brownies. Refrigerate until hard (approximately 30 minutes).
  • GLAZE: In small saucepan, melt butter. Then turn off heat and stir in chips, stirring until completely smooth. Pour frosting evenly over filling; spread carefully to cover. I like to run a serrated knife across the top to give it a pattern.
  • Refrigerate 1 hour before cutting into bars but don't let the chocolate topping harden too much or it will crack when you cut it. Store in refrigerator (they also freeze beautifully).
